It's incumbent on good public servants to maintain their voices and originality of thinking.

Happy Father's Day -- or as they call it in my family, happy brother-in-law's day.

A simple leather jacket... has gotten me through cocktail parties in New York and cold nights in Afghanistan.

I cannot see him. I cannot have a relationship with my father and be morally consistent... I lived with all these adopted children, so they are my family. To say Soon-Yi was not my sister is an insult to all adopted children.

Being under the microscope meant I was never given any slack. I still managed to screw up plenty in life, mind you, but in the things I really cared about - the legal work, or the stories I was telling as a writer, or the office I built in government - I wasn't left a lot of margin for error. It's kept me driven.

I know full well how important women are in diplomacy and development. I grew up with seven sisters.
