WOMEN'S QUOTES It's tough to say that women think differently than men, but judging by these women's quotes, we do. I'm not sure that's a bad thing; in fact, I think it's a good thing. Breeze through these women's quotes, and what stands out? Service to others, dignity within ourselves, and a connection to others. Those are very powerful feelings. As women continue to take a stronger position in the worlds of politics and economics, let us fervently pray that we take these feelings with us. As Janis Joplin so aptly put it: Don't compromise yourself. You're all you've got. *** Women's quotes that speak of service to others: If you have knowledge, let
others light their candles in it. We must not, in trying to
think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily
difference we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we
often cannot foresee. Many persons have a wrong idea
of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through
self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose. It's so clear that you have to
cherish everyone. I think that's what I get from these older black
women, that every soul is to be cherished, that every flower is to bloom. How wonderful it is that
nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world. Women's quotes that speak of our own dignity: With each new day comes new
strength and new thoughts. I don't think of myself as a
poor deprived ghetto girl who made good. I think of myself as somebody who
from an early age knew I was responsible for myself, and I had to make good. Love is a great beautifier. The purpose of life, after
all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly
and without fear for newer and richer experiences. I think the key is for women
not to set any limits. Remember no one can make you
feel inferior without your consent. Not knowing when the dawn will
come, I open every door. If you want the rainbow,
you've got to put up with the rain. Women's quotes that speak of our connection to others: It is this belief in a power
larger than myself and other than myself, which allows me to venture into the
unknown and even the unknowable. In spite of everything I still
believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can't build up my
hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery and death. You cannot shake hands with a
clenched fist. Each friend represents a world
in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this
meeting that a new world is born. ** ** Virtually every single page in this web site has powerful, captivating women's quotes by fascinating women. I'm always on the lookout for more historical female voices -- so often these voices were silenced. If you know any good women's quotes, or sources, do let me know.

O's Page. I could have filled this whole page of women's quotes with Oprah's quotes. Oprah Winfrey is a powerful, compassionate voice for women, and it is with pleasure that I dedicate this page to her. ***
