To commemorate the day and celebrate women everywhere, I collected all my favourite quotes for reminding women just how powerful and boss they are 💛
“I do not wish women to have power over men; but over themselves.” – Mary Shelley.
“Do not live someone else’s life and someone else’s idea of what womanhood is. Womanhood is you.” – Viola Davis.
“I have learned over the years that when one’s mind is made up, this diminishes fears; knowing what must be done does away with fear.” – Rosa Parks.
“The most important thing one woman can do for another is expanding her sense of actual possibilities.” – Adrienne Rich.
“If you have knowledge, let others light their candles in it.” – Margaret Fuller.
“Nothing can dim the light which shines from within.” – Maya Angelou.
“What’s the greatest lesson a woman should learn? That since day one, she’s already had everything she needs within herself. It’s the world that convinced her she did not.” – Rupi Kaur.
“A successful woman is one who can build a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at her.” – Unknown.
“To tell a woman everything she cannot do is to tell her what she can.” – Spanish Proverb.
And finally…
“Here’s to strong women: May we know them, may we be them, and may we raise them.”
