Mary Beard
I think that what will help women get into positions of power - well, day nurseries, equal pay, family-friendly working hours. And I think all that's important. I used to think it was the solution. I now think it's enabling, and it's important, but still we have got head work to do about this.
Quote examples
Erica Jong
American Novelist

Jack Dangermond
American Businessman
