More quotes by Madeleine Albright
I am such a political person.
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. But anybody who says that the world would be better has forgotten high school. It depends on who the women are.
Madeleine Albright

Madeleine Albright
So there really was a whole series of things that took the women of my generation a little bit of time to push forward.
Madeleine Albright
The greatest thrill in my life was to represent the United States of America.
Madeleine Albright
Glass ceilings have been broken, but more have to be broken.
Madeleine Albright
I have been in meetings where a head of state will say, 'I like your tie,' to a man... or, 'I like your country because the weather's good,' or whatever. So for me, the pins in some ways were openers.
Madeleine Albright
Women can't do everything at the same time, we need to understand milestones in our lives comes in segments.
Madeleine Albright
The Framework Agreement is one of the best things the [Clinton] Administration has done because it stopped a nuclear weapons program in North Korea.
Madeleine Albright
