Too many people have a wonderful dream and just talk about it rather than do something about it.

I believe the only limitations are the ones that we accept. I know that there is, in theory, a glass ceiling. But I don't believe that it's a solid wall. I'm going through it. Nothing's stopping me. Yes, there are these preconceived notions; yes, we have challenges. Let's accept them, let's not be afraid of them, let's break through them.

The greatest failure is not to try. Had I listened to all the people during the course of my life who said, "You can't. You'll fail. It won't work. You don't have...," I wouldn't be here today.

You do not have to be superhuman to do what you believe in.

Number one, I absolutely love making chocolate chip cookies. I mean, it's fun. It's exciting. Beyond the fact that I love making them, I love eating them.

I had always been taught that life was the other way around -- that you had to make sure you got what was coming to you . . .

I love making people smile. I get so much energy through interacting and feeling like I've made a difference, a small difference.
