To challenge non-profit education programs is an exercise in futility, counter-productive and anti-educational.

- [on entering the porn industry] I really thought about it numerous times before I made my decision and it did not bother me after a while. It especially did not bother me after I told my sister and my mother. That was really hard, but once I told them and got over that hump I knew I could tell anyone. That was really hard because I knew they would be judgmental.
