Madeleine Albright
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.

Madeleine Albright

Madeleine Albright
I am by nature a worried optimist.
Madeleine Albright
History is written backwards but lived forwards.

Madeleine Albright
