Great Woman..

DON’T BE AFRAID TO CHALLENGE
Woman must not accept; she must challenge. She must not be awed by that which has been built up around her; she must reverence that woman in her which struggles for expression.
— Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood

DON’T GIVE UP
Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong.
— Ella Fitzgerald, African-American Jazz singer

REVEAL YOUR BEAUTY
People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
— Elizabeth Kübler-Ross, author of "On Death and Dying"

LIVE THE LIFE YOU WANT
Don't let anyone rob you of your imagination, your creativity, or your curiosity. It's your place in the world; it's your life. Go on and do all you can with it, and make it the life you want to live.
— Mae C. Jemison, first African-American woman astronaut

DARE TO DREAM
Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.
Gloria Steinem, American journalist and political activist

NURTURE & TRANSFORM
A woman is the full circle. Within her is the power to create, nurture, and transform.
— Diane Mariechild, author of "Mother of Wit"

DIMINISH FEAR
I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear.
— Rosa Parks, African-American civil rights activist

AGING IS OPPURTUNITY
Aging is not 'lost youth' but a new stage of opportunity and strength.
— Betty Friedan, author of "The Feminine Mystique

TOUCH THE SKY
We never know how high we are
Till we are called to rise;
And then, if we are true to plan,
Our statures touch the skies.
— Emily Dickinson, American poet

HAVE COURAGE
The best protection any woman can have...is courage.
— Elizabeth Cady Stanton, American abolitionist

BE INDIPENDENT
I think the girl who is able to earn her own living and pay her own way should be as happy as anybody on earth. The sense of independence and security is very sweet.
— Susan B. Anthony, American suffragette and advocate of women's rights

WORK HARD
Hard work keeps the wrinkles out of the mind and spirit.
— Helena Rubenstein, Polish cosmetics industrialist

MAKE OTHERS FEEL GOOD
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
— Maya Angelou, African-American poet

IT’S OK TO FAIL
You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try.
— Beverly Sills, former American opera soprano
