I wake up in the morning and I say to myself, thank God that I am free woman in this world. I'm thinking about the girls in Saudi Arabia. A woman cannot leave home without permission from her husband. And She [a woman in Saudi Arabia] cannot drive. And she needs somebody, a man to go with her. God forbid, the property, somebody would look at this property. I just cannot believe that this world exists. (00:34–03:41)
