I want to stop transforming and just start being.

Believe that there are no limitations, no barriers to your success --- you will be empowered and you will achieve.

Dreams do come true, but not without the help of others, a good education, a strong work ethic, and the courage to lean in.

The best way to change it is to do it. Right? And then after a while you become it, and it's easy.

The world is changing. We all know this. And as that world changes, if you don't transform your company, you're stuck.

I say to my team all the time that this is how I grew up: Always thinking that, at any minute, I could be unemployed. You have to scramble. You have to work hard and get ahead of things.

Where you are is not who you are

My perspective comes in part from being a New York black lady, in part from being an engineer. I know I'm smart and have opinions worth being heard.

I'm an advocate for change and eager to break a little glass when needed.

I'm a black lady from the Lower East Side of New York. Not a lot intimidates me.

First I was decayed, I was putrefied. Kept thinking I could never live on, now that I had died...

Who takes the child by the hand takes the mother by the heart.

Always be sincere, even if you don't mean it.

She feared no danger, for she knew no sin.

My whole thing has always been as long as everybody else is going through it, I can go through it as well.

If you are what you eat, then I only want to eat the good stuff.

I'm world-famous ... all over Canada.

Whether you call my heart affectionate, or you call it womanish: I confess, that to my misfortune, it is soft.

Most of what matters in your life takes place in your absence.

We are about getting things done. We are not about the blame game. We are not about making excuses.
