[julianabmv]

I’m only 12 but want to become someone who does something meaningful like engineering or becoming a successful scientist

[Black_pearl_adrift]

The way Bill looks at Melinda is literally so sweet

[emiliebouchard]

Based on the comments it seems people are confusing 'powerful' with 'inspirational'.

[antonellaluis]

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. Business opportunities are like buses, there’s always another one coming.

I really think that people who tell me that i am stupid and unrealistic bcz i have a big ambition and that i can't do it bcz i am girl and i am supposed to be a housewive and my husband maid(i am from the middle east) give me more motivation by giving me another reason for doing what is on my mind which is proving them wrong. For every girl or woman reading this comment never give up and know that you do can

[henryraymond]

What makes people rich whether male or female depends on your investing power and not your spending power💪

[retnavybrat]

I personally rank women who worked their way up on their own merits much higher than women who had the doors opened for them because of their families or husbands. Not to say that women who had doors opened for them aren't competent, nor do I belittle their accomplishments, but would most of them be where they are today if they had to open those doors for themselves?

[saymahossain]

She’s going to fight until every girl knows they can be whatever they want to be 👌🏻 what a speech 😘

[scottrhodes]

You are right Merkel is not only the the most powerful woman in the world but she is a model for what a strong heart and the belief in the right of all people to a safe and satisfying life is something that we all deserve and should expect our leaders to strive for.

[jeanp]

Hello Mrs Jane is legit and her method works like magic I keep on earning every single week with her new strategies

[Awesomo]

It would be a surprise if Margaret Thatcher is not on the list or even on the honorable mention. After all, she was called "The Iron Lady".

[MrThemovie]

I love Queen Elizabeth II. She's so fancy. You already knoOwwow

[kevinenaturelle]

I will be here sometime in the future. 🙈 Not that I care much about the list but i believe it inspires next generations to do better and believe in themselves.

[christie]

Why is everyone hating on Merkel I think she is doing a great job in such a devited continent and country.

[brunocarvalho]

Do you know that Elizabeth II can declare war if she wants! And that she owns all swans in the U.K.!? It's true
