  • 2. You should not consider a man's age but his acts.
  • 3. I was born in ancient times at the end of the world in a patriarchal Catholic and conservative family. No wonder that by age five I was a raging feminist – although the term had not reached Chile yet so nobody knew what the heck was wrong with me.

2 Amazing

5 Architecture

  • 2. No architecture is so haughty as that which is simple.
