"It is obvious that the values of women differvery often from the values which have been made by the other sex. Yet, it is the masculine values that prevail." -- Virginia Woolf (in A Room of One's Own)
"Research with talented females has revealed a number of internal barriers, personal priorities, and decisions that have consistently emerged as the reasons that many either cannot or do not realize their potential."
