" 'To women leaders like Avon CEO Andrea Jung and Oprah Winfrey, power is about a broad landscape of influence. (Jung told me that she defines power as 'the privilege to influence.' Oprah says that power is 'the ability to impact with purpose.') These women are generally not satisfied by simply climbing the ladder to the bigger job and the bigger title." -Quote said by Pattie Sellers [editor of "Fortune"], notes by Arianna Huffington.

" Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful." - Buddha

"...Everyone is born with concrete physical characteristics and undiscovered capacities. But no one is born knowing she is male or female, black of white; nor does anyone come into the world already thinking she is stupid or smart, pretty or ugly, shy or outgoing, strong or weak, loveable or unloveable, generally inadequate or basically okay. As far as ideas and impressions of herself are concerned, the newborn can be said to begin life with a 'blank slate.'" -Linda Tschirhart...

I'm taking a guess here. "You are very good"? Loool. Wishful thinking? It's been so long since I studied Greek.

"In real life, the cycles aren't so ordered, the chances for renewal are not annual. In real life, it can take many seasons to see the patterns that ran you into the ground, and many more for you to do something about it. When I finally pulled out of the downward spiral of self-doubt that marked my shift from youth to adulthood, several years had elapsed." -Eric Liu in 'Guiding Lights', 43.

"People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstance. The people who get on in the world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can't find them, make them." -George Bernard Shaw, Irish playwright.

"We have a choice when we face difficult decisions: We can act with faith or we can act with fear. There are no guarantees except this one: If we dwell on our fears, we will definitely miss the joys of the unexpected." -Arianna Huffington, p 83, "On Becoming Fearless"

"You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.'...You must do the thing you think you cannot do." -Eleanor Roosevelt

"You've got opinions man; we're all entitled to them, but I never asked. So let me thank you for your time and try not to waste any more of mine. Get out of here fast! I hate to break to break it to you babe, but I'm not drowning." -Sara Bareilles
