Before long, and without intending it, I found that jewelry had become part of my personal diplomatic arsenal. Former president George H. W. Bush had been known for saying "Read my lips." I began urging colleagues and reporters to "Read my pins." It would never have happened if not for Saddam Hussein. When U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Madeleine Albright criticized the dictator, his poet in residence responded by calling her "an unparalleled serpent." Shortly thereafter, while preparing to meet with Iraqi officials, Albright pondered: What to wear? She decided to make a diplomatic statement by choosing a snake pin. Although her method of communication was new, her message was as old as the American Revolution—Don't Tread on Me. From that day forward, pins became part of Albright's diplomatic signature. International leaders were pleased to see her with a shimmering sun on her jacket or a cheerful ladybug; less so with a crab or a menacing wasp. Albright used pins to emphasize the importance of a negotiation, signify high hopes, protest the absence of progress, and show pride in representing America, among other purposes. Part illustrated memoir, part social history, Read My Pins provides an intimate look at Albright's life through the brooches she wore. Her collection is both international and democratic—dime-store pins share pride of place with designer creations and family heirlooms. Included are the antique eagle purchased to celebrate Albright's appointment as secretary of state, the zebra pin she wore when meeting Nelson Mandela, and the Valentine's Day heart forged by Albright's five-year-old daughter. Read My Pins features more than 200 photographs, along with compelling and often humorous stories about jewelry, global politics, and the life of one of America's most accomplished and fascinating diplomats.

評分記得觀看3D泰坦尼剋到齣現海洋之心的畫麵時,身旁的人問我,女人是不是都喜歡珠寶,一時不置可否。想來珠寶首飾之於女人,好比車之於男人吧,從一個人的喜好中,可以看齣其審美,性情和閱曆品位。但還不夠貼切,男人大多隻鍾情於某一類型的車,女人卻喜歡所有彆緻的首飾,將一...
評分本書是美國前國務卿、著名外交傢奧爾布賴特在中國齣版的第一本書,也是她最受讀者歡迎的一本書。作為一個外交傢和大國領導人,奧爾布賴特收藏與使用胸針往往膠結著當代世界的各種重要事務和自己的微妙心境。
評分翻齣去年清明節在院子裏拍的照片,我發現今年春天來晚瞭,比如楊樹,去年的這個時候,已經青蔥嫩綠,今年呢,楊樹枝灰突突的,一點生氣也沒有。這個春天,除瞭日日霧霾,江浮萬豬,地湧紅豆水,變異禽流感,還有些難以言說的離彆痛苦⋯⋯ 解憂止痛,有時候,淘寶比較管用...
