“I get worried for young girls sometimes; I want them to feel that they can be sassy and full and weird and geeky and smart and independent, and not so withered and shriveled.” — Amy Poehler
Amy Poehler is one of my new heroes. Lesley Knope, the character she plays in “Parks & Recreation” is all of the things above. Even in episodes where she does ditzier things, Knope’s own heroes are strong women in power - her own goal is to be President of the United States.
