I Am By Nature A Worried Optimist.

Women Are More Than 50% Of Almost Every Country In The World. Countries Rob Themselves Of The Resources Of Women If They Keep Them As Property. It Isn't That Women Can't Find Work. It's Just That Women Don't Get Paid For Their Work And Are Not Recognized Properly. It's Something That Has To Be On The International Agenda All The Time.

I Think The Jobs [at The Top] Are Unbelievably Difficult, And There Is Nothing Easier Than Second-guessing People.

You Can't Just Think That You Will Get A Job For No Good Reason... And I Think That The Other Part Is You Have To Work Your Way Up, You Know I Did A Lot Of Xeroxing And Getting Coffee...i Always Did What I Was Asked To Do. I Delivered. People Knew That I Would Get Things Done And Get Them Done Well. And That Is A Big Part Of Our Resumes, Are Based On Being Responsible And Being Willing To Do What Needed To Be Done.

The Reason I Made Women's Issues Central To American Foreign Policy, Was Not Because I Was A Feminist, But Because We Know That Societies Are More Stable If Women Are Politically And Economically Empowered.

I Really Think That There Was A Great Advantage In Many Ways To Being A Woman. I Think We Are A Lot Better At Personal Relationships, And Then Have The Capability Obviously Of Telling It Like It Is When It's Necessary.
