I always tell myself that it is very, very important for me to be a good role model for Alma, my daughter.

I wanted to show that women are empowered and strong, and don't have to be saved by some male hero, but they can take care of themselves using their intelligence and their power.

In real life I'm the type of girl who doesn't take herself too seriously. I'm very serious when it comes to work, but I like to make jokes and have a good laugh and make fun of myself.

I just keep active - everything thats challenging me, everything that I feel like doing.

I'm a goofy girl. I like to laugh and I like to make other people laugh.

On Wall Street, the lawyers play the same role as medics in war: They come in after the shooting is over to clean up the mess.

Adolescence is a marketing tool.

Men fear silence as they fear solitude because both give them a glimpse of the terror of life's nothingness.

I dislike being an anvil for the hammering out of other people's virtues.
