More quotes by Susan Rice

Susan Rice
If you're trying to get something done, there will always be people who don't want to see you get something done, or who have a stake in the status quo. And if they approach that through ad hominem criticism of you, you've got to have enough confidence and thickness of skin to be able to endure.

Once you've learned to study in a bathing suit on the grass with muscled men throwing frisbees over your head, you can accomplish almost anything.
Susan Rice
Well, I think by any expectation South Africa has come a tremendously long way. We've seen a society that many people thought couldn't withstand a peaceful transition to democracy without a great deal of violence, in fact, make that transition and do it in relative peace and security.
Susan Rice
All of us as citizens have to be consumers and judges.
Susan Rice
If you want change, you have to make it. If we want progress we have to drive it.
Susan Rice
What I would say about me is: What you see is what I get.
Susan Rice
I am very aware of being black and female because that's what I am.
Susan Rice
I spend every day up at the United Nations where I have to interact with 192 other countries. I know how well the United States is viewed.
Susan Rice
Bashar al-Assad and those who still stand by him are now responsible for the deaths of more than 20,000 in Syria.
Susan Rice
South Africa's increasingly, for example, the largest foreign investor in various other parts of Africa.
Susan Rice
The United States share of the African market it's very small, it's only about 8 percent.
