More quotes by Sally Armstrong

There’s this extraordinary attitude that women should be second-class, put down, punished, not included. It is absolutely extraordinary to me. It doesn’t matter whether you are in South Sudan or Iraq, Afghanistan or China — it’s the same thing.

There's never been a better time in human history to be a woman. And despite the blowback from misguided politicians, leftover chauvinists, and hypetmasculine misogynists, women are closer to gaining equality than ever before. The journey ahead is bound to epic, and it will affect everything—our wallets, our jobs, our very future.
