'If they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair.'
'I am unbought and unbossed.' 'I want to be remembered as a woman who dared to be a catalyst of change.' 'Service is the rent that you pay for room on this earth.' 'You don’t make progress by standing on the sidelines, whimpering and complaining. You make progress by implementing ideas.' |
