More quotes by Paula Broadwell
It's reducing my entire professional career and background to this one word [mistress].
Paula Broadwell
I just genuinely believe in the concept of redemption and renewal, so I was happy. When I get beyond my feelings, I had my own family and friends and so many women across America come to me and say their blood was boiling, asking me how this could happen.
Paula Broadwell
It's part of the reason I decided to speak out now. This was the tipping point for me. If it's O.K. for [David Petraeus ] to campaign for a job in the administration, then I'm going to campaign to get back out there, too.
Paula Broadwell
I had been sort of a rising star - an athlete, a scholar, a leader. My dream was to become a high-level national security adviser.
Paula Broadwell
We [in Think Broader.] went through and looked at coverage in different industries and were able to point out to newsrooms that they had these hidden biases. We'd do a review and provide a report card, and provide our suggestion on how to avoid bias.
Paula Broadwell
Hopefully women can work with [Ivanka Trump ] to influence up the chain of command. I think it's good for us, for women. It's a glimmer of hope.
Paula Broadwell
The story is framed around [avid Petraeus] resignation. So many headlines that followed talked about his ruined career. They completely ignore the fact that my career was ruined, other peoples' careers were ruined. They focus on him as the victim.
Paula Broadwell
I want to serve. I love my country. I love service above self and I don't want my talents to go to waste. I also want to send a message to other men and women who've tripped over themselves, or over life: that you need to serve your time in purgatory.
Paula Broadwell
[Fighting for equality for women] that's what my mission has been for the last years.
Paula Broadwell
As a feminist, I'll wear whatever I want to.
Paula Broadwell
I had been working on a second book with [David] Petraeus called Relentless. Obviously that book and the income that it would have generated went away.
Paula Broadwell
It really felt like a tidal wave of bias washed over our country and we're still soaked in it.
Paula Broadwell
We had to communicate through our lawyers a couple of times over the years, and [David Petraeus] told me that people have been like, Good job, Dave. Congratulating him. That's the double standard. I've concluded that sharing it won't change anything.
Paula Broadwell
I don't have the advocates. I don't have a good old boys network. Part of what I want to do is to create a good old girls network.
Paula Broadwell
You can reclaim your own narrative.
Paula Broadwell
My peers are all in sensitive jobs - at the C.I.A., the National Security Council, working for the Department of Defense. They can't stand up for me in public.
Paula Broadwell
I'm not in love with David Petraeus. But I think he does present a terrific role model.
Paula Broadwell
I was an academic and I lost my assignment at Harvard. Meanwhile, [David Petraeus] gets invited to Harvard to become a fellow.
Paula Broadwell
I was encouraged, though, because I saw feminist writers - male and female - calling out the bias. I feel like more and more writers are cognizant of the problems and are willing to try to challenge them.
Paula Broadwell
Having a bunch of medals and badges doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve achieved anything, you’ve got to do something beyond yourself to make a difference in life. Seek to be consequential in whatever you do.
Paula Broadwell
