“In the future, there will be no female leaders. There will just be leaders.”

Trying to do it all and expecting that it all can be done exactly right is a recipe for disappointment. Perfection is the enemy.

I feel really grateful to the people who encouraged me and helped me develop. Nobody can succeed on their own.

What I tell everyone, and I really do for myself is, I have a long-run dream, which is I want to work on stuff that I think matters.

Real empathy is sometimes not insisting that it will be okay but acknowledging that it is not.

Bring your whole self to work. I don’t believe we have a professional self Monday through Friday and a real self the rest of the time. It is all professional and it is all personal.

It’s more pressure on women to – if they marry or partner with someone, to partner with the right person. Because you cannot have a full career and a full life at home with your children if you are also doing all of the housework and child care.

But the upside of painful knowledge is so much greater than the downside of blissful ignorance.

We’re focused on doing one thing incredibly well. If you look at other companies, all of these companies are doing a lot of different things but we’re still, as we grow, doing exactly one thing.

Leadership is not bullying and leadership is not aggression. Leadership is the expectation that you can use your voice for good. That you can make the world a better place.

But I really believe that when you give people authentic identity, which is what Facebook does, and you can be your real self and connect with real people online, things will change.

Framing the issue of work-life balance – as if the two were dramatically opposed – practically ensures work will lose out. Who would ever choose work over life?

Women attribute their success to working hard, luck, and help from other people. Men will attribute that – whatever success they have, that same success – to their own core skills.

Don’t make decisions too far in advance, particularly ones you’re not even conscious you’re making.

Our culture needs to find a robust image of female success that is first, not male, and second, not a white woman on the phone, holding a crying baby.

When companies offer support and assistance for personal and family hardships, their employees become more loyal and more productive.

The best way to make room for both life and career is to make choices deliberately-to set limits and stick to them.

It’s sad to be constantly judged for every move you make after your first success. If you wear your hair differently, you have changed.

A woman can change the atmosphere of a room just by walking through that door, if that isn’t magic, what is?

No pressure is greater than God’s power.

People always ask me how I start a collection, and I tell them that I just look around. What am I tired of? What am I in the mood for? Real fashion change comes from real changes in real life. Everything else is just decoration.

If you don’t change the direction you are going, then you’re likely to end up where you’re heading.

Love Is Not A Temporary Feeling Or Emotion. Emotion And Feeling Change, Sometimes Daily. But True Unconditional Love Is Everlasting.

Water is the medicine for indigestion; it is invigorating when the food that is eaten is well digested; it is like nectar when drunk in the middle of a dinner; and it is like poison when taken at the end of a meal.

With change comes the chance to fall in love with yourself again.
