I would love to meet J.K. Rowling and tell her how much I admire her writing and am amazed by her imagination. I read every 'Harry Potter' book as it came out and looked forward to each new one. I am rereading them now with my kids and enjoying them every bit as much. She made me look at jelly beans in a whole new way.

Because they're faceless and nameless. So, for me, Facebook looked like it was going to solve the problem of the invisible victim.
Sheryl SandbergWhen people are really suffering, and we know they're suffering, that question can be a very difficult one. Inadvertently, I think without anyone meaning it, it communicates a lack of empathy.
Sheryl SandbergGive us a world where half our homes are run by men and half our institutions are run by women. I'm pretty sure that would be a better world.
