“I can't imagine where I'd be without the opportunities provided to me in sports. Sports taught me that gender isn't an issue; in fact, when people talk about me being the first female governor, I'm a little absent from that discussion, because I've never thought of gender as an issue. In sports, you learn self-discipline, healthy competition, to be gracious in victory and defeat, and the importance of being part of a team and understanding what part you play on that team. You all work together to reach a goal, and I think all of those factors come into play in my role as governor.” PeopleThinkingFirstsLittlesI CanSelfPlayFactsTogetherOpportunitySportsUnderstandingGoalRolesIssuesImagineTeamTaughtVictoryDisciplineHealthyFemaleImportanceCompetitionDefeatGenderFactorsDiscussionWorking TogetherGovernorsSelf DisciplineAbsentGraciousVictory And DefeatHealthy Competition Author:Sarah Palin

“I can't imagine writing a book without some strong female characters, unless that was a demand of the setting.

“I think one of the great joys of being a writer is you can transcend everything, even your own sex, what century you live in, and how you think. I found it quite natural to think as a male because I actually think that as a female, one often thinks in the mind of a male in terms of eroticism. You think about what the other person feels. So it's not that hard to imagine being that person.” ThinkingFeelsMindPersonsHardJoyFoundSexTermNaturalImagineCenturyFemaleMalesGreat Joy Author:Rebecca Miller
“A military audience is kind of weird.

“I was 35. I was the oldest female VJ at Viacom ever. I left them, which at least preserved my dignity, because I'm sure they would eventually have kicked me to the curb.

“Fully embrace the fact that you are enough just being you. It's so important for women to champion each other instead of competing against each other. Believe in yourself and believe in all of the women in your life. As females we are already strong but imagine if we all supported one another? What a world that would be.” WorldBelieveImportantEnoughStrongImagineFemaleEmbraceChampionBelieve In YourselfCompetingBelieve In You Author:Lizzie Velasquez
“The female experience throughout the history of Korea has been accompanied by physical and mental anguish. This negative aspect of Korean history is one of the driving forces behind my work. To imagine transcending time and space to live in the body of another person is not only one of the key elements that shape my work, but also, it is an opportunity to revisit and understand the ways women have long been viewed and treated in Korea.” LongOpportunityImagineNegativeFemaleDrivingAnguishTime And SpaceKoreanTranscending Author:Hyon Gyon
“I think it's significantly easier to be a female writer today than in the early 1800's. That said, it's hard to imagine almost anyone who knows anything about publishing disagreeing with the statement that women writers today are often taken much less seriously than men writers. But it's hard to quantify, and even define, what being taken seriously means.” ThinkingMenMeanTodayTakenImagineFemalePublishing Author:Curtis Sittenfeld
