When you praise kids for being smart when they succeed, when they struggle later, they think 'if my past success made me smart, my current struggle makes me dumb,' but when you praise children for the process, when you help them understand that their actions lead to their success, when they face a setback later, they'll realize that there are actions they can take to overcome that setback. – Carissa Romero	Found on CNN 8 years ago
One of the insights I took from this process was that the compliments we so frequently and often unconsciously bestow on girls can actually have a negative effect and even become a source of pain and disempowerment, while counterintuitive, compliments, especially the ones related to physical appearance like 'you're so cute; you're adorable,' were perceived as limiting and oppressive, making girls feel that the expectations on them were focused on their appearance and not on their abilities or what was inside. – Lauren Greenfield	Found on CNN 8 years ago
The boxes the girls wrote on ... took on this unexpected emotional meaning, there was a kind of tangible power and exhilaration when the girls became aware of that thing that limited them. ... For a moment, they glimpsed a world without boxes and saw how liberating and empowering it could be for them and their future. – Lauren Greenfield	Found on CNN 8 years ago

When we sort of peel back the layers a bit, the fact that these women are still playing on artificial turf or did for this World Cup ... and the fact that the prize money is just a fraction of what the men get, I think that is indicative of unfortunately the second-class status that girls and women's sports still face. – Neena Chaudhry	Found on CNN 8 years ago
The coupling of sexism and sport, having this be an exclusionary practice, is still a strong one. – Nancy Hogshead-Makar	Found on CNN 8 years ago

I had never even seen 'Top Chef.' I didn't know what I was getting into, i did it out of desperation. Woodfire Grill was struggling to get people in the seats. I've never been good at failure, and so I was willing to do anything. – Kevin Gillespie	Found on CNN 8 years ago
I said, 'If I'm gonna do this thing (cooking) that I know no one else wanted for me, I have to do it to the best of my ability, or I will really have let them down,' i've carried that burden of guilt pretty much my whole life. I actually think it's one of the reasons I've fought so desperately to be successful. – Kevin Gillespie	Found on CNN 8 years ago

It's your grandmother's home, and she's going to do anything she can to make you happy and get you fed. – Kevin Gillespie	Found on CNN 8 years ago
I felt that we as Southerners were starting to slowly lose our grasp on the traditional cooking of the South, because we put so much emphasis on modernizing (cuisine) ... we accidentally forgot to bring our grandma with us. And we need to go back and pick her up. – Kevin Gillespie	Found on CNN 8 years ago
