Try to remember them – and you will see how powerful some words can be.
1. Tina Fey:
“Don’t waste your energy trying to educate or change opinions; go over, under, through, and opinions will change organically when you’re the boss. Or they won’t. Who cares? Do your thing, and don’t care if they like it.”
2. Coco Chanel:
“Women must tell men always that they are the strong ones. They are the big, the strong, the wonderful. In truth, women are the strong ones. It is just my opinion, I am not a professor.”
3. Zooey Deschanel:
“I don’t know why femininity should be associated with weakness. Women should be free to express who they are without thinking, ‘I need to act like a man, or I need to tone it down to be successful.’ That’s a very good way to keep women down.”
4. Sherri Shepherd:
“The best piece of advice someone has ever given me was ‘do it scared.’ And no matter if you’re scared, just go ahead and do it anyway because you might as well do it scared, so it will get done and you will feel so much better if you step out of your comfort zone.”
5. Christian Dior:
“After women, flowers are the most lovely thing God has given the world.”
6. Ellen DeGeneres:
“True beauty is not related to what color your hair is or what color your eyes are. True beauty is about who you are as a human being, your principles, your moral compass.”
7. Anne Roiphe:
“A woman whose smile is open and whose expression is glad has a kind of beauty no matter what she wears.”
8. Audrey Hepburn:
“The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.”
9. Ginger Rogers:
“You know, there’s nothing damnable about being a strong woman. The world needs strong women. There are a lot of strong women you do not see who are guiding, helping, mothering strong men. They want to remain unseen. It’s kind of nice to be able to play a strong woman who is seen.”
10. Nicki Minaj:
“My advice to women in general: Even if you’re doing a nine-to-five job, treat yourself like a boss. Not arrogant, but be sure of what you want — and don’t allow people to run anything for you without your knowledge.”
11. Muhhamad Ali Jinah:
“There are two powers in the world; one is the sword and the other is the pen. There is a great competition and rivalry between the two. There is a third power stronger than both, that of the women.”
12. Margaret Sanger:
“Woman must have her freedom, the fundamental freedom of choosing whether or not she will be a mother and how many children she will have. Regardless of what man’s attitude may be, that problem is hers — and before it can be his, it is hers alone.”
13. Marilyn Monroe:
“A wise woman likes but doesn’t love, listens but doesn’t believe and leaves before she is left.”
14. Dick Van Dyke:
“Women will never be as successful as men because they have no wives to advise them.”
15. Amelia Earhart:
“I want to do it because I want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, their failure must be but a challenge to others.”
16. George Bernard Shaw:
“If women were particular about men’s characters, they would never get married at all.”
17. Calvin Klein:
“I think there’s something incredibly sexy about a woman wearing her boyfriend’s T-shirt and underwear.”
18. Whitney Houston:
“I like being a woman, even in a man’s world. After all, men can’t wear dresses, but we can wear the pants.”
19. Cameron Diaz:
“What we women need to do, instead of worrying about what we don’t have, is just love what we do have.”
20. John Mason Brown:
“America is a land where men govern, but women rule.”
21. Farrah Fawcett:
“God gave women intuition and femininity. Used properly, the combination easily jumbles the brain of any man I’ve ever met.”
22. Yul Brynner:
“Girls have an unfair advantage over men: if they can’t get what they want by being smart, they can get it by being dumb.”
23. Joseph Conrad:
“Being a woman is a terribly difficult task, since it consists principally in dealing with men.”
24. Cherie Lunghi:
“Be yourself — it’s the inner beauty that counts. You are your own best friend, the key to your own happiness, and as soon as you understand that — and it takes a few heartbreaks — you can be happy.”
25. Oscar Wilde:
“Women are made to be loved, not understood.”
