In WORKING GIRLS, I basically ask, “What is worse, forty hours a week in some boring office job, or eight hours in a brothel?” It depends on what you can handle. Some people can’t deal with it, but is renting out your body for eight hours really worse than renting your mind for forty hours by, say, working at Kinko’s? — Lizzie Borden
