I enjoy speaking to other women about turning 50, and how we can enjoy it, and how we can explore it.
If women can be railroad workers in Russia, why can't they fly in space?
I found that women entrepreneurs earn 50% less than their male counterparts.
I need six weeks of rehearsal and women need nine months and it took me 15 years to figure that out.
The single thing all women need in the world is inspiration, and inspiration comes from storytelling.
I want, through my roles, to express the parts in the hearts of Chinese women that they feel unable to let out.
Let the politicians debate equal pay and pursue the folly of a war on women in America.
In a war, no matter the outcome of a certain skirmish or battle, the winner is the party whose attitudes, behaviors and preoccupations come to dominate the postwar landscape. By this measure, the outcome of the gender wars, if wars they were, is clea...
This world, for aught he knows, is very faulty and imperfect, compared to a superior standard; and was only the first rude essay of some infant deity, who afterwards abandoned it, ashamed of his lame performance: it is the work only of some dependent...
As I climbed up into the high old bed, the large fly in my personal ointment did the same. Had I actually told him he could get in bed with me? Well, I decided, as I wriggled down under the soft old sheets and the blanket and the comforter, if Eric h...
This is what we are like. Collectively, as a species, this is our emotional landscape. I met an old lady once, almost one hundred years old, and she told me, "There are only two questions that human beings have ever fought over, all through history. ...

You don't want to return to the life you had before Stanford, and you don’t know if you can remain in this life any longer, but fear should never be the reason why you change. If you're only here because you're afraid of the old way of life, you'll...
