Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat. --- Theodore Roosevelt

I am glad to have listened to the audio book Texas Wisewomen Speak. Two people faced discrimination: one, Barbara Jacket, had faith in God and was able to grow through the circumstance, remaining positive. The other, Carmen Lomas Garza, didn't and grew bitter. I particularly love the advice that women should learn how to cook, because the ability to whip up dinner before a business meeting will be nothing short of a miracle for the dealings afterward. I loved the story of Dr. Juliet Villarreal Garcia, president of the University of Texas at Brownsville. I also wish the Democrats would have more of legislators like state senator Judith Zaffirini. The world would be a better place with more entrepreneurs like Ninfa Laurenzo. What could have been if Sarah Weddington had been pro-life?
