2. “Think it's less that than the distribution itself that men for lots of different reasons tend to be in the way right tail. So that's going to be in finance. It's not just in tech. It's going to be in all areas. It's going to be in surgery. It's going to be in dentistry. It's going to be in lots of different self-employment.”

3. “Well, it didn't expand that much. I mean, we're talking about blips on blips. So it expanded more for the higher educated than for the lower educated, or should I say it actually closed for the lower educated, whereas it stagnated for the higher educated.

4. “You know, as you well know, it's a very large country. But let's face it, Chinese women became more liberated during the Communist Revolution.

There is no question that equality has escaped China as it has escaped much of the world. I was there in 1975, which is a very long story. I met many different people who are in some middle ranks, upper middle ranks of the party. And there were a lot of women. And let's face it, there weren't a lot of women in 1975 in Congress and certainly not in the White House.”
