Here you'll find clever quips and intelligent insights on subjects including aging, challenges, children, feminism, life lessons, work, writing, and more. Humanitarians like Eleanor Roosevelt, Mother Teresa, and Princess Diana are featured, as well as scientists and scholars like Marie Curie and Margaret Mead. Artists, writers, and actresses such as Grandma Moses, Anais Nin, and Bette Davis weigh in with quotable comments.

In addition to anticipated pleasures - quotations from "Miss Manners" on marriage, Madonna on ambition, Georgia O'Keeffe on art, and Sophia Loren on beauty - you'll be surprised to come upon unexpected treasures like Marilyn Monroe on domestic life, Lily Tomlin on politics, Gloria Steinem on sports, and Nancy Reagan on struggle. Their words are always eloquent, often sharp, and sometimes funny.

But you can count on one sure thing: Each of these women has something to say that's worth reading - and repeating.
