Michelle Obama
“It remains a damning fact of life that we ask too much of those who are marginalized and too little of those who are not.”
Michelle Obama, The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times

Eleanor Brown
“She was too much in the habit of criticizing and complaining to stop, so I had decided to get out of the habit of taking it personally. I could see my mother's words were my grandmother's legacy of disappointment, and the best I could do was to live in a way that would break the cycle.”
Eleanor Brown, The Light of Paris

Adrian Pei
“In the most blunt and pragmatic sense, diversity is optional to many white organizations, because their historical success has not relied on it.”
Adrian Pei, The Minority Experience: Navigating Emotional and Organizational Realities

Alli Patterson
“You get to live a new life on the foundation of the cross. You do not get what you deserve. You get grace instead. Grace is terribly, beautifully unfair, and it's yours for the taking.”
Alli Patterson, How to Stay Standing

Weike Wang
“Was it harder to be a woman? Or an immigrant? Or a Chinese person outside of China? And why did being a good any of the above require you to edit yourself down so you could become someone else?”
Weike Wang, Joan Is Okay
