‎"I think that making girls more like men is actually the wrong way to go, it's the other way around. It's like the men that need to learn how to be more like those natural qualities that women have: mercy and compassion, and this is a humanisation process. We don't call our schools 'alma maters' for nothing. 'The nurturing mother', that's what a school is supposed to be, it's supposed to give you your humanity".
