&quot;Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80&#039;s movies? I want John Cusack holding a boombox outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawnmower with Patrick Dempsey. I want Jake from Sixteen Candles waiting outside the church for me. I want Judd Nelson thrusting his fist into the air because he knows he got me. Just once I want my life to be like an 80&#039;s movie, preferably one with a really awesome musical number for no apparent reason. But no, no, John Hughes did not direct my life.&quot;

"Because you are women, people will force their thinking on you, their boundaries on you. They will tell you how to dress, how to behave, who you can meet and where you can go. Don't live in the shadows of people's judgment. Make your own choices in the light of your own wisdom."<br /> -Amitabh Bachchan
