As a PR professional, it's almost embarrassing to admit that I had no idea that today was International Women's Day.
Maybe it's because I pay little attention to holidays that should be a common place: like the one-day celebration of women.
But I digress...
In honor of all the women that touch me personally, professional and deep within my soul, here's a few of my favorite quotes by women.
Phenomenal Woman - Maya Angelou
(excerpt)
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Anne Frank
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.
Oprah Winfrey
If you make a choice that goes against what everyone else thinks,
the world will not fall apart.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you,
till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer,
never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
I hope that their words of strength, courage and love inspire you as much as they inspire me.
