Believe in yourself and negotiate for yourself. Own your own success.

We cannot change what we are not aware of, and once we are aware, we cannot help but change.

If you're offered a seat on a rocket ship, don't ask what seat! Just get on.

Women don't take enough risks. Men are just 'foot on the gas pedal.' We're not going to close the achievement gap until we close the ambition gap.

So please ask yourself: What would I do if I weren't afraid? And then go do it.

Being confident and believing in your own self-worth is necessary to achieving your potential.

Next time you're about to call your daughter bossy, take a deep breath and say, 'My daughter has executive leadership skills.'

In the future, there will be no female leaders. There will just be leaders.

We need women at all levels, including the top, to change the dynamic, reshape the conversation, to make sure women’s voices are heard and heeded, not overlooked and ignored.

Leadership is not bullying and leadership is not aggression. Leadership is the expectation that you can use your voice for good. That you can make the world a better place.

Your life's course will not be determined by doing the things that you are certain you can do. Those are the easy things. It will be determined by whether you try the things that are hard.

Listen with an open heart

How much are you willing to sacrifice to achieve the level of success you desire?

It hurt to think that a boy would not have him at his value of himself.

People think I rush around all day long like a raving lunatic. I'm much more relaxed than that.

It is not hard to compose but it is wonderfully hard to let the superfluous notes fall under the table. . . So many melodies fly about, one must be careful not to tread on them.

Every problem offers an opportunity for a solution. if you are in the right frame of mind to find it.

The debt and the deficit is just getting out of control, and the administration is still pumping through billions upon trillions of new spending. That does not grow the economy.

Money does all things,--for it gives and it takes away; it makes honest men and knaves, fools and philosophers; and so forward, mutatis mutandis, to the end of the chapter.

Only you yourself can be your liberator!
