To honor International Women’s Day on March 8, I gathered 10 of my favorite quotes penned about and/or by women.
1) The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before. Albert Einstein
2) The story of women’s struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights. Gloria Steinem
3) You educate a man; you educate a man. You educate a woman; you educate a generation. Brigham Young
4) What would men be without women? Scarce, sir…mighty scarce. Mark Twain

6) A revolutionary woman can’t have no reactionary man. Assata Shakur
7) There is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind. Virginia Woolf
