"When you climb a mountain, sometimes you slip, you change jackets, but in the end, all mountains are climbable."

"Not having children of my own was certainly a very hard choice, but also a very clear and rational one."

"Women in the company are just as important as men, it depends on how they behave. My rules? No pants; they shouldnt judge us by our clothes."

"I wanted a pink ship. It was a crazy idea, but it worked."

"A great help in my life came from someone up there who loved me and helped me."

"A husband can sometimes be inconvenient, but children are."

"“I think it is women who feel inadequate in a man’s world more than men creating obstacles.”"

"“Sometimes the wave of life lifts you up, it pushes your ship, the wind gusts in the same direction, it blows the spinnaker up and you just go. You are at the ship’s wheel, but it’s the wind energy that leads you further, and you feel that incredible and dangerous sensation of ruling the forces of nature.”"
