There’s a difference between fair game and playing games.
I’ve always believed you can learn something from nearly everybody you meet, if you’re open to it.
Take criticism seriously, but not personally. If there is truth or merit in the criticism, try to learn from it. Otherwise, let it roll right off you.
We should remember that just as a positive outlook on life can promote good health, so can everyday acts of kindness.
Don’t confuse having a career with having a life.
Always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. And, when you stumble, keep faith. And, when you’re knocked down, get right back up and never listen to anyone who says you can’t or shouldn’t go on.
Every moment wasted looking back, keeps us from moving forward… In this world and the world of tomorrow, we must go forward together or not at all.
There is a sense that things, if you keep positive and optimistic about what can be done, do work out.
Forgiveness is a way of opening up the doors again and moving forward, whether it’s a personal life or a national life.
You don’t walk away if you love someone. You help the person.
You have to be true to yourself.
Too many women in too many countries speak the same language-of silence.
Human rights are women’s rights, and women’s rights are human rights. Let us not forget that among those rights are the right to speak freely – and the right to be heard.
You want me to tell you what my husband thinks? My husband is not secretary of state; I am. If you want my opinion, I will tell you my opinion. I am not going to be channelling my husband.
I believe in a zone of privacy.
Showing up is not all of life – but it counts for a lot.
Of course, parents are the most important people in a child’s life.
You can’t just give a speech and expect people to fall down and agree with you.
I believe in transparency.
Human rights are women’s rights, and women’s rights are human rights. Let us not forget that among those rights are the right to speak freely – and the right to be heard.
My feeling is if you’re going to be a leader, you have to carefully assess where people are and where people want to go.
If a country doesn’t recognize minority rights and human rights, including women’s rights, you will not have the kind of stability and prosperity that is possible.
Voting is the most precious right of every citizen, and we have a moral obligation to ensure the integrity of our voting process.
