I felt like it was a sense of duty for me to give these women a voice.

Forcing victims of sexual harassment into secret arbitration proceedings is wrong because it means that nobody ever finds out what really happened.

I'm a big believer in always challenging yourself and learning new skills.

Trust is the most important aspect of being a journalist. If people don't trust or find you relatable - you will not have success.

My hope is that when people read my story, it will inspire them to reach for their goals and not give up. The real story is this: if I can do it, you can too.

Self esteem is built from the inside out and that is my inspiring message to all people.

If you Google me, you'll find plenty of "dumb blonde" references - even though I graduated with honors from Stanford and studied at Oxford University. I don't let it bother me.

I'm not superwoman. It's impossible to do everything 100 percent all of the time. And suggesting that women should be able to do it only puts more pressure on them.

I felt vindicated that I decided to speak up for not only myself but women all across the nation who've been put down.

The discipline learned from putting in time and effort as a child is a skill and a talent you carry with you for the rest of your life in trying to achieve goals.

In the Miss America system talent is worth 50 percent of a contestant's points so my mom encouraged me to give it a try. And once I decided to do it, like anything else, I gave it 110 percent.

Why envy someone else's success when God has already blessed you with a mind to strive and achieve yours?

I mostly drink clear booze because the rest of it looks it's already been through a gentleman.

While I am flattered about the speculation of being enticed out of retirement, I'm happy with life as a bad golfer!

If it's important do it everyday.

Leaders of institutions everywhere have lost trust. The global economy is stalled and the world is deeply divided, too unequal, unstable and unsustainable.

There is not so good an understanding between any two, but the exposure by the one of a serious fault in the other will produce a misunderstanding in proportion to its heinousness.

We pride ourselves on all being unique shows.

You’re falling now. You’re swimming. This is not           harmless. You are not                     breathing.

If you don't have a plan, you become part of somebody else's plan.

Shorten my days thou canst with sullen sorrow, And pluck nights from me, but not lend a morrow; Thou canst help time to furrow me with age, But stop no wrinkle in his pilgrimage.
