It is in giving that I connect with others, with the world and with the divine.

Give, give, give - what is the point of having experience, knowledge or talent if I don't give it away? Of having stories if I don't tell them to others? Of having wealth if I don't share it? I don't intend to be cremated with any of it! It is in giving that I connect with others, with the world and with the divine.

We only have what we give.

Men's memoirs are about answers; women's memoirs are about questions. Most male authors want to look good in their memoirs and have a place in posterity, while most women know that posterity is what happens when you no longer care. Women want to connect with others here and now; they couldn't care less about legacy!

Although women do two-thirds of the world's labor, they own less than one percent of the world's assets.

If this world is going to be a better place for our grandchildren and great-grandchildren, it will be women who make it so.
