More quotes by Madeleine Albright
What a blast it is to be here with Michael Moore.
Madeleine Albright
For somebody who loves foreign policy, being Secretary is the best job in the world - but it doesn't happen twice.
Madeleine Albright
I get up every morning and I'm grateful for everything that has happened. I go through my list about being grateful for my children and grandchildren, and for the really remarkable life that I have been able to have.

The world would be entirely different if it were run by women. I think it is true that we are more seeking consensus and don't have such big egos and have a variety of different ways of trying to get along. But anybody who says that the world would be better has forgotten high school. It depends on who the women are.
Madeleine Albright
Even before I went to the UN, I often would want to say something in a meeting - only woman at the table - and I'd think, 'OK well, I don't think I'll say that. It may sound stupid.' And then some man says it, and everybody thinks it's completely brilliant, and you are so mad at yourself for not saying something.
Madeleine Albright

Madeleine Albright
The bottom line is, the more we have a cadre of women moving up the scale, and it doesn't seem threatening, and people realize that women actually work much harder than men, and realize that they need more women in these jobs, I think that goes away.
Madeleine Albright
Glass ceilings have been broken, but more have to be broken.
Madeleine Albright
I have always thought of myself as a Czechoslovak Catholic.
Madeleine Albright
Today, I say that no nation in the world need be left out of the global system we are constructing.
Madeleine Albright
As a leader, you have to have the ability to assimilate new information and understand that there might be a different view.
Madeleine Albright
I felt that America's duty was not to try to do everything itself, but to foster a sense of commitment that would bring out the best in every country.
Madeleine Albright
For me, being raised in a free America made all the difference.
Madeleine Albright
Only in America could a refugee girl from Central Europe become secretary of state.
Madeleine Albright
I have very set and consistent principles, but I am flexible on tactics. I like to get the job done.
Madeleine Albright
I got married, I really waited a long time - three days after I graduated.
Madeleine Albright
Women can't do everything at the same time, we need to understand milestones in our lives comes in segments.
