Katy Perry

Career, Whole, Side

Alveda King

One of the reasons inequality gets so deep in this country is that everyone wants to be rich. That's the American ideal.

Live, Deep, Country

Benjamin Netanyahu

Down, Far, Lies

But I do not believe that the world would be entirely different if there were more women leaders.

But if you watch the women who have made it to the top, they haven't exactly been non-aggressive - including me.
Madeleine Albright

Leadership, Women, Woman

As a leader, you have to have the ability to assimilate new information and understand that there might be a different view.

Simon Mainwaring

History, Find, Else

There could be no honor in a sure success, but much might be wrested from a sure defeat.

Jean-Michel Basquiat

Famous, Romantic, Feeling

Music, Great, Art
