One of the things that was re...

One of the things that was really an issue was I did not want to just be a woman secretary of state. I wanted to be a secretary of a state who was a woman, but not just chosen for that particular reason.

I am not a fatalist. I have just been reading War and Peace and Tolstoy is such a fatalist. I think people can make a difference... I am an optimist who worries a lot.

Our life comes in segments, and we have to understand that we can have it all if we're not trying to do it all at once.

Madeleine Albright 253 quotes

I'm not a person who thinks the world would be entirely different if it was run by women. If you think that, you've forgotten what high school was like.

Whatever the job you are asked to do at whatever level, do a good job because your reputation is your resume.

Madeleine Albright 253 quotes

I teach at Georgetown, and I see that the students have so many different interests. The main thing is to match your passion with your knowledge, because you can't just be passionate without knowing the facts, and facts are really boring without passion.

I was taught to strive not because there were any guarantees of success but because the act of striving is in itself the only way to keep faith with life.

I think that there is never an indispensable leader, you know? I think that there is a time with dignity that one needs to leave.

I have to tell you, my seven-...

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.

The day-to-day making of policy is arguing all the time. You're trying to get the right approach and the right answer, and there are moments that aren't very pleasant. But in the end, you look at the overall product.

When Hillary served in the Senate, I saw her work day and night as a member of the Armed Services Committee - working with Republicans and Democrats to keep our military strong and protect our troops and their families.

Madeleine Albright 253 quotes

And so I have studied, I have...

And so I have studied, I have to tell you, revolutions and uprisings for a long time. They are all slightly different, but what they all look for is some kind of a mechanism to go from an authoritarian system to an open, democratic system.

I have always thought of myself as a Czechoslovak Catholic.

Madeleine Albright 253 quotes

I wasn't a normal professor. ...

I wasn't a normal professor. I had worked in government. I hadn't written nine zillion books. I was a hands-on professor.

I've never seen America as an imperialist or colonialist or meddling country.

Madeleine Albright 253 quotes

I am often asked if, when I was secretary, I had problems with foreign men. That is not who I had problems with, because I arrived in a very large plane that said United States of America. I had more problems with the men in our own government.

Madeleine Albright 253 quotes

My parents were of the generation who thought they were the children of a free Czechoslovakia, the only democracy in central Europe.

I hope I'm wrong, but I am afraid that Iraq is going to turn out to be the greatest disaster in American foreign policy - worse than Vietnam, not in the number who died, but in terms of its unintended consequences and its reverberation throughout the region.
