Madeleine Albright Quotes About Mothers

Quotes about: Mothers

• I have to tell you, my seven-year-old granddaughter said to my daughter, her mother, 'So what's the big deal about Grandma Maddy having been Secretary of State? Only girls are Secretaries of State.' Most of her lifetime, it's true. But at the time it really was a big deal.

• I had more problems with the men in our own government, and not because they were male chauvinistic pigs but because they had known me for so long.

So that was more of a problem.
