"If I were to do anything over, I would not hold my tongue, not second guess myself. I would be unafraid to be wrong. I would be outside of my head more. I would not be afraid to fail. We have to be brave enough to own our voices. @MichelleObama @SimmonsLeads #SLCBoston – at Boston, MA

"We expect perfection in ourselves and then we don't expect imperfection in other women. We are raised to think that men are flawed, but women ... we hold it down so we are tougher on ourselves." @MichelleObama @SimmonsLeads #SLCBoston – at Boston, MA

"I have to prioritize myself; move myself up. We schedule ourselves around work, and then there's no time for life. I could then say "No" to things because I was already on my calendar. I had to fight for me." @MichelleObama @SimmonsLeads #SLCBoston – at Boston, MA

"My strength came from knowing I had a soft place to land. When I was young, I had the foundation of home as my soft place. This is important to my personal survival. How do we help young leaders find their place?" @MichelleObama @SimmonsLeads #SLCBoston – at Boston, MA

"The power of one man doesn't make change. There are limits to democracy." @MichelleObama @SimmonsLeads #SLCBoston

"We are in a better place today than any time in history. It takes perspective and time to understand it. Exercise the patience that's needed and do what you can to within your control. Be comfortable in the grayness." @MichelleObama @SimmonsLeads #SLCBoston – at Boston, MA

"We are at point in time when we need to think about who we want to be as a nation. I want to build a country based on generosity and compassion and we are full of inclusion. We can't take things for granted." @MichelleObama @SimmonsLeads #SLCBoston – at Boston, MA
