“I’m not going to mislead anybody. Politics is really hard. And it is harder for women. There’s a double standard, and you can’t complain about it. You just have to accept it, and be smart enough to navigate it. And you have to have a pretty tough skin.”

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in an interview with Glamour, talking about being a woman involved in politics. The former first lady and senator also discusses her post-State Department plans in the September issue of the mag, which hits newsstands on August 9.
