The power I exert on the court depends on the power of my arguments, not on my gender.
Sandra Day O'Connor

Jim McKay

There are not as many women who support the national defense budget now as men. I really think there is a gender gap in the support for the large expenditures that are necessary to modernize the force.
Ted Stevens

There are still traces of discrimination against race and gender, but it's a lot different than when I started out. It just comes quietly, slowly, sometimes so quietly that you don't realize it until you start looking back.

Ellen Ochoa

What is being called the UN 'gender architecture' is more like a shack. Women need a bigger global house if equality is ever to become a reality.
