3 December 2020 Danica McKellar I didn’t think that college math was for me. I didn’t think I’d be able to hack it. And that perception of math not being for girls, not being for girls who see themselves as socially well adjusted has got to change.
3 December 2020 Nelson Mandela Our single most important challenge is therefore to help establish a social order in which the freedom of the individual will truly mean the freedom of the individual.

3 December 2020 Audrey Hepburn I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it’s the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It’s probably the most important thing in a person.
