Jane Alexander (politician)

"So many times, I have been the only woman in so many situations. I never used my position as a woman to influence things. I did it as a member of the group."

"But if you see an opportunity to help women, take it."

"Women are interested in the people they can help. To advance the cause of women, it's not enough to get to the top spot; you have to reach out and help other women."
