So far you guys have overlooked what was possibly her greatest contribution to humanity. She was credited with coining the phrase "It is better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission." In all seriousness, she was an amazing person. Whenever I hear someone start complaining that women shouldn't be allowed to pursue a career, I think of all of the things that we wouldn't have if it weren't for women like Grace Hopper. Edit: Someone posted the quote before I finished writing. Good job!
