daughter mother strong-women
On the day my daughter was born, I started writing a book for her. The plan was that, over the course of her life, I'd fill it with advice on how to be a strong woman. But along the way, I got caught up in the stories of Amelia Earhart, Sally Ride, and so many others. So how do you pick the best heroes for your kids?
people helping amelia
Some people help thousands of people directly, like Marie Curie or Susan B. Anthony. Others help us by inspiring us, like Amelia Earhart. But you do have to help someone.
character work-out plot
There is no better place to plot the death of a character than when you're miserable and working out.
son lessons my-son
I love when I teach my son a good lesson. But I love it even more when he teaches me.
mother father book
I played Little League for one year. That was it. Then my mother realized I liked books and threatened my father. I owe her forever for that.
strong men creative
Women are not weaker. Read that again. Women are not weaker. They are just as strong, just as resolute, just as creative, and are filled with just as much potential as any man.
sex memories love-you
There are some people in your life who bring back old memories. And there are others - your first kiss, your first love, your first sex - who, the moment you see them, bring a spark...and something far more potent. They bring back your old life and with that, potential. And possibilities. And the feeling that if you were back in that time, life could be so very different from where you're stuck right now. That's the most tantalizing thing....I want my potential back.
hate government people
We make a great bad guy, and they all say they hate us. But at the end of every day, people want to trust us. Because we're their government. And people trust their government.
daughter believe fighting
As I now often tell my daughter Lila, no matter what stage of life you're in, when you want something-no matter how impossible it seems-you need to fight for it. When you believe in something, fight for it. And when you see injustice, fight harder than you've ever fought before.
ocean people pirate
There's nothing in the world like buried treasure-and people hungry and obsessed enough to risk their lives for it. Pirate Hunters isn't just a good story-it's a true one. Searching for the souls of its explorers, it takes you to the far tip of the plank and plunges you deep to the bottom of the ocean.
greatness thinking forget
Greatness isn't something you should always be chasing. There's greatness within all of us, and I think that's what we forget,
eye president eras
Not every President is a great speaker. Not every President is a great thinker. But in the modern era, every single President is a master of one thing: eye contact.
powerful believe destiny
Today, I don't believe in destiny. But I do believe in history...There's nothing more powerful than history...
order sides needs
I need the kind of help that comes with a side order of help.
