Women's Voices: Quotations by Women
Quote collection assembled by Jone Johnson Lewis
Quotation: One has to grow up with good talk in order to form the habit of it.
Quotation: The story of a love is not important --what is important is that one is capable of love. It is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity.
Quotation: Yes, I have doubted. I have wandered off the path. I have been lost. But I always returned. It is beyond the logic I seek. It is intuitive — an intrinsic, built-in sense of direction. I seem always to find my way home. My faith has wavered but has saved me.
Quotation: We rely upon the poets, the philosophers, and the playwrights to articulate what most of us can only feel, in joy or sorrow. They illuminate the thoughts for which we only grope; they give us the strength and balm we cannot find in ourselves. Whenever I feel my courage wavering I rush to them. They give me the wisdom of acceptance, the will and resilience to push on.
