Quote of the Week - Schmidt

“If you’re offered a seat on a rocket ship, you don’t ask what seat. You just get on.”

- Eric Schmidt (quoted by Sheryl Sandberg in Lean In)

Quote of the Week - Sandberg

“If current trends continue, 15 years from today about one-third of the women in this audience will be working full time, and almost all of you will be working for the guy you are sitting next to.” 

- Sheryl Sandberg, Lean In

And - yeah - I'm thinking all the quotes this month should be from women.  I mean, it's Women's History Month.  What do you think?

Come back Wednesday for guest blogger Ruthanna Barnett's entry for the Women You Should Know series!  (I'm so excited.  I so love the guest bloggers!)
