We are bringing women into politics to change the nature of politics, to change the vision, to change the institutions. Women are not wedded to the policies of the past. We didn't craft them. They didn't let us.

We are affirming human rights for all women and girls, acknowledging the full range of diversity that exists, and detailing actions to prevent violence.

Working women wore hats. It was the only way they would take you seriously.

I am not a centrist.

We are coming down from our pedestal and up from the laundry room.

Our struggle was political, ideological and economic, and we felt we couldn't make something of ourselves unless we bettered society. We saw the two together.

Our struggle today is not to have a female Einstein get appointed as an assistant professor. It is for a woman schlemiel to get as quickly promoted as a male schlemiel.

The test for whether or not you can hold a job should not be the arrangement of your chromosomes.

I'm a politician. I run for office. That's my profession.
