“I'm not sure that it matters as much to women as to our male colleague...” — Jenny Shipley Quote

I'm not sure that it matters as much to women as to our male colleagues to have the public adulation and be on the public mind.

Every second, every day, every year, we fail to address demand for reproductive health and family planning services. Lives are lost, and girls' opportunities to thrive and contribute to their country's development shrink. These are real people.

Too often the desire for peace has been expressed by women while the stewardship of the mechanisms which are used to attempt to secure peace in the short and medium term are dominated by male decision-making structures and informal arrangements. This must change.

The decision by France to resume nuclear testing in the South Pacific has destroyed this hope and raised a storm of protest at home, in the South Pacific and thankfully around the world.

Success demands sacrifices. I believe it's a small price to pay for the adulation and love one receives.

I don't live for all the pats on the back and the adulation. I let my boxing do the talking.

I have received more fulfillment and adulation than I would ever know what to do with in terms of show business.

I remember being in Atlantic City once when I was 18 or 19, and a sea of people were screaming and pulling their hair because I was there. It was weird. Nobody deserves adulation like that. I tried to explain it to my kids once. I said, 'Mommy used to be kind of cool, kind of like a Britney Spears.'
