Even though most people would view Bruce
Wayne as successful, he is still motivated by
what’s right and risks his life to help others and
do just that without ever being rewarded or
acknowledged for it.

“[Women] are not a special interest
group. We are the majority... It is time
for us to aim higher when it comes to
women, to invest more and to deploy
our dollars to benefit women all around
the world. We can make a difference,
and make a difference, not just for
women, but for a global economy that
desperately needs their contributions.
Together we can make certain that the
so-called exceptions begin to rule.”

Experimentation

“Here is a remarkable thought –
among the world’s children starting
grade school this year, 65% will end
up doing jobs that haven’t even been
invented yet. Since we can’t predict
exactly what today’s young people
will need to know in ten or twenty
years, what we teach them is less
important than how they learn to
teach themselves.”

“Anyone who has never made a
mistake has never tried anything new.”
