Couldn't find this one on the shelves of 5 national booksellers in my area... and only two could order within several weeks to a month. If you find a hard copy, grab it - great coffee table book.

In do research for publicizing Mar 00 Women's History Month activities, someone let me borrow their copy of this book because I like to add quotes to my work and in program scripts. I was delightfully impressed to find quotes completely by women... not necessarily just about women (some of those are not flattering).

32 varied women are portrayed with a brief biography and quotes by them. Interspersed are loads of quotes from numerous women from all walks of life on diverse subjects.

"I'm not a has-been. I'm a will be" Lauren Bacall...

"Don't be afraid to feel as angry or as loving as you can, because when you feel nothing, it's just death" Lena Horne

"If you haven't forgiven yourself something, how can you forgive others?" Delores Huerta

Excellent resource. I collect quotes and there are a lot to save in this book.

Gave book as a gift to a friend who collects quotes.
She said it is one of the best books in her collection.
She was very pleased with the selection of quotes.

As a fellow quote book author, I have to tell you that I really admire this book. I have never seen a more complete collection of quotations from women throughout history. I really enjoyed the pictures that the authors included about the women, and the depth and variety of women who they included. This is a fantastic purchase for anyone who is looking to give a gift to a young woman in order to show her that anything is possible in life.

Enjoy!
