As a doctor, when I was minister of health and would go somewhere, little girls would come up to me and say, I want to be like you one day, I want to be a doctor. Now, they tell me, I want to be president just like you. All of us can dream as big as we want. – Michelle Bachelet
People see I am a mother and head of a household. Today in Chile, one-third of households are run by women. They wake up, take the children to school, go to work. To them I am hope. – Michelle Bachelet
