As more women have gone into the workforce, they find it harder to be a good mother and a good worker. when i go into the office, i always feel guilty. i'm thinking about the children. when i'm at home, i'm thinking about my work. so you're always under tremendous pressure. women feel very stressed. they feel like they're working harder and harder and harder. and society is not really helping them.

More From Carolyn Maloney

Usually women are the lynchpins of the family. they carry the brunt of the work at home and of being mothers and of taking care of the children. not always. i have a wonderful husband, who is a great father and has helped tremendously at home. and i think that men are getting in touch and i think that the role that they have is so important, to be a good father and have a good career and be a good husband. but i think that as more and more women go into the workforce, you have to have more help at home and it becomes more of a sharing of responsibilities.

I do not think stress is a legitimate topic of conversation, in public anyway. no one ever wants to hear how stressed out anyone else is, because most of the time everyone is stressed out. going on and on in detail about how stressed out i am isn’t conversation. it’ll never lead anywhere. no one is going to say, “wow, mindy, you really have it especially bad. i have heard some stories of stress, but this just takes the cake.

There's always a new thing happening to me that's even more extraordinary, so pressure gets harder. but i like it when it's hard. anyone can do it when it's easy. when it's hard and you can do it good, you're proud of yourself. there's going to be more pressure as the years go by, that's for sure. but i think i'm a hard worker and i'm ready for that. as long as i believe in what i'm doing, the pressure is okay with me.

Don't buy society’s definition of success. because it’s not working for anyone. it’s not working for women, it's not working for men, it's not working for polar bears, it's not working for the cicadas that are apparently about to emerge and swarm us. it’s only truly working for those who make pharmaceuticals for stress, sleeplessness and high blood pressure.

"what for?" i said. "what for, tante lou? he treated me the same way he treated her. he wants me to feel guilty, just as he wants her to feel guilty. well, i'm not feeling guilty, tante lou. i didn't put him there. i do everything i know how to do to keep people like him from going there. he's not going to make me feel guilty."

The most unacknowledged spending expectation among women is the amount of time spent by single mothers caring for children, not only physically, but psychologically. it is my feeling that only a small percentage of a mother's time is normally compensated for by child support, given what a woman could make adding these hours to workforce hours. it is why women who have never been married and never had children earn so much more in the workplace than women who have had children.

Death isn't enough. it doesn't remove the stain. but a slap, a whiplash, square on the face, does. because a man's face is as sacred as his mother or his wife.

I believe our legacy will be defined by the accomplishments and fearless nature by which our daughters and sons take on the global challenges we face. i also wonder if perhaps the most lasting expression of one's humility lies in our ability to foster and mentor our children.
