QUTOES

Women are often the most powerful voices for moderation in times of conflict.

"Full democracy requires the full participation of women. Your voices are vital. The word 'vital' means necessary for life. A democracy, to be fully alive, must include all its citizens."

"Real security requires more than bombs and bullets. In an increasingly dangerous world, we won't be safe until we cultivate an understanding that every person's tears are the same color (to borrow a Bosnian phrase), and every dream carries the same weight."
