We are going to see a steady stream, I predict, of Nobel prizes coming out of chemistry and given to women.

I was the first female cab driver in the city of Pittsburgh.

I tried lots of things and never stopped learning.

I can't imagine not being able to read and write, or make these connections from literature and philosophy that have helped inform my understanding of evolution.

We must expect the discovery of many as yet unknown elements-for example, elements analogous to aluminum and silicon- whose atomic weight would be between 65 and 75.

I found that people like rules, and I love to tell people what to do. It's not rocket science when it comes to weight loss. It's about eating a little less and moving a little bit more.
