“I’ve had an abortion. I’ve used birth control. I’ve done invitro fertilization and I have a special needs daughter, right, so it’s like all of those are sort of connected to choice and taking on what you feel like, what I feel like, I can responsibly take on as a human and as a mother.” – Amy Brenneman
“[P]art of this conversation is faith leaders saying hold up, not only can you not hijack the word Christian, you actually cannot hijack women …” – Amy Brenneman
“My participation in this is about truth telling and I think that that’s the wonderful disorienting time that we are living in.” – Amy Brenneman
“[O]n September first when S.B. 8 first came down, I felt it the way…I can’t really describe it, but it was like I was a woman in Texas. There was no part of me that was like thank God I’m in California at all.” – Amy Brenneman
“Maybe it shouldn’t be the decision of nine people who more and more display their political [biases]…and I say that as the daughter of a judge.” – Amy Brenneman
