“So women, we need to sit up, we need to make our home front beautiful first, we need to do that, to make it our priority. We don’t have to be king, at the same time we can still rule.”

But do not shut us down because you ‘ve got the brain.” “And there are so many things now that women do which men cannot even do.”
