Make sure that your kids or the kids in your life have an opportunity to share their ideas, and to teach you something about what we know.

I cannot emphasize enough the importance of family encouragement - not just for me, but for everyone.

The fact that a baby can be born today and condemned to a life of hardship, struggle, and discrimination simply because of sex is enraging.

History is made every day. The challenge is getting everyone to pay attention to it.

There's no committee that says, 'This is the type of person who can change the world - and you can't.' Realizing that anyone can do it is the first step. The next step is figuring out how you're going to do it.
