"We cannot change what we are not aware of, and once we are aware, we cannot help but change."
"I was grateful that Facebook already had generous bereavement policies . Now Facebook employees receive 20 days paid leave to grieve the loss of an immediate family member and 10 days for an extended family member. I'm proud that we're able to do this and I hope more businesses do the same. Only 60 percent of private sector workers get paid time off after the death of a loved one, and then it's usually just a few days. Workers and families deserve better than that."

"Women don't take enough risks. Men are just 'foot on the gas pedal.' We're not going to close the achievement gap until we close the ambition gap."
"So please ask yourself: What would I do if I weren't afraid? And then go do it."
"Being confident and believing in your own self-worth is necessary to achieving your potential."
