We have a lot to learn from women in the world who have the ability to inspire people to achieve great things and the ability to accomplish even the hardest things in life on their own. From past to present, many women have left their mark on world history by overcoming all obstacles. The words of many famous names, from Frida Kahlo to Madonna, from Coco Chanel to Barbara Corcoran, are in our memories. Some did this by writing a book, some as a CEO in a company, and some by making their name known to the world from the Hollywood scene… Let’s all remember the words these special women said about life, love and dreams.
COCO CHANEL
“The moment you decide to be yourself, you become beautiful.”
AUDREY HEPBURN
“I believe in pink. I believe laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing and kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe tomorrow is another day and miracles happen.” I believe.”
OPRAH WINFREY
“If you still don’t know what your passion is, remember this is one of the reasons you’re in the world.”
CAROLINA HERRERA
“I don’t get my inspiration from books or pictures. I get it from all the women I meet.”
FRIDA KAHLO
“They thought I was a surrealist. They were wrong because I never painted my dreams. My brush never painted any reality other than my own. There was always love in that truth.”
LADY DIANA
“I want to be the queen in people’s hearts, not the queen of a country.”
MADONNA
“Many people are afraid to say what they want. That’s why they don’t get what they want.”
EILEEN FISHER
“The continuity of a job is never about money. When you feel a genuine passion for something, you instinctively find ways to improve it.”
KATHARINE HEPBURN
“I lived like a man, not a woman. I did what I wanted, I earned enough money to support myself and I was not afraid of being alone.”
AUNG SAN SUU KYI
“In societies where men are confident that they are of great value, women are only tolerated, but women are still valued.”
SHERYL SANDBERG
“True leadership comes from authenticity. Leaders must strive for authenticity of excellence.”
BARBARA CORCORAN (Entrepreneur and Investor)
“The difference between successful people and others is how much time they regret spending.”
ANNA WINTOUR
“The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up.”
MARISSA MAYER
“You can be good at technology as you are in fashion and art. You can be good at technology and be a sports freak. You can be good at technology and be a mother. You can chart your own path on your own terms.”
GLORIA STEINEM
“We raise girls like boys, but few of us dare to raise our sons like girls.”
HILLARY CLINTON
“Women are the largest undiscovered reservoir of talent in the world.”
MARGARET ATWOOD
“Does feminist mean the unhappy person yelling at you, or the person who believes women are human? Second, I think that’s why I’m a feminist too.”
SARA BLAKELY (founder of Spanx brand)
“Don’t be afraid of what you don’t know. This can be your greatest strength and allows you to do things differently from others. ”
ELLEN DEGENERES
“I work really hard to try to see the big picture and not get stuck in the ego. I believe we all come to this planet for a purpose and we all have a different purpose… When you connect with love and compassion, everything is resolved.”
CANDINE CARPENTER
“Success is about creating value.”
MARY TYLER MOORE
“Take risks, make mistakes. That’s how you can improve.”
