Miss Grimke: What are your latest thoughts on the importance of looks?
DGF: Funny you should ask. I know I'm overdue a new prescription for my reading glasses.
Miss Grimke: I don't mean looking out. I mean looking in. Have you been rethinking your look?
DGF: Well I have been letting my hair grow out a bit. I was getting tired of going to the hairdresser's so often.
Miss Grimke: Are you sure you don't mean the barber? I happen to know when a lady is looking for change she cuts off her hair. When she has settled into her new sphere, she lets it grow.
DGF: But change is neither immediate nor total. For each moment of exhilarating transformation there are a thousand daily realities, traveling a slower road, far behind our ideals.
Miss Grimke: Did you ever imagine Ms. Steinem would have represented one of those thousands of realities traveling a slower road, far behind our ideals?
DGF: Never never never. And no I do not go to the barber.
Miss Grimke: You know what I think?
DGF: I think Ms. Steinem is overdue for a haircut.
