Some of us have great runways already built for us. If you have one, take off! But if you don’t have one, realize it is your responsibility to grab a shovel and build one for yourself and for those who will follow after you.

Amelia Earhart

Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.
