Conor McGregorWe are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle.
Marilyn MonroeI have worshipped woman as the living embodiment of the spirit of service and sacrifice.
Mahatma GandhiI would just like to say something, ladies and gentlemen. Something that I think is very important. It is that, you, we – we own this country. We – we own it. It is not you owning it, and not politicians owning it. Politicians are employees of ours.
Clint EastwoodWhat old people say you cannot do, you try and find that you can. Old deeds for old people, and new deeds for new.
Henry David ThoreauMy mother was very strong. Once, she picked up a coconut and smashed it against my father’s head. It taught me about women defending themselves and not collapsing in a heap.
Alice WalkerNational character is only another name for the particular form which the littleness, perversity and baseness of mankind take in every country. Every nation mocks at other nations, and all are right.
Arthur SchopenhauerThe man of genius inspires us with a boundless confidence in our own powers.
Ralph Waldo EmersonIs fear preventing you from taking action? Acknowledge the fear, watch it, take your attention into it, be fully present with it. Doing so cuts the link between the fear and your thinking. Don’t let the fear rise up into your mind. Use the power of the Now. Fear cannot prevail against it.
Eckhart TolleBut I do not believe that the world would be entirely different if there were more women leaders. Maybe if everybody in leadership was a woman, you might not get into the conflicts in the first place. But if you watch the women who have made it to the top, they haven’t exactly been non-aggressive – including me.
Madeleine AlbrightSometimes it is better to light a flamethrower than curse the darkness.
Terry PratchettNeither sex, without some fertilization of the complimentary characters of the other, is capable of the highest reaches of human endeavor.

Groucho MarxIf there is anything that a man can do well, I say let him do it. Give him a chance.
Abraham LincolnEach player must accept the cards life deals him or her: but once they are in hand, he or she alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game.
VoltaireLeaders in all spheres who are living with HIV should be encouraged, not coerced, to lead by example and disclose their HIV status.

Napoleon BonaparteA whole people with the ballot in their hands possess the most conclusive and unlimited power ever entrusted to humanity.
Herbert HooverWhen it comes to gossip, I have to readily admit men are as guilty as women.
Marilyn MonroeWomen tend to be more intuitive, or to admit to being intuitive, and maybe the hard science approach isn’t so attractive. The way that science is taught is very cold. I would never have become a scientist if I had been taught like that.
Jane GoodallWomen. They are a complete mystery.
Stephen HawkingThe answer to the problem of inequality is for the people who are fortunate enough to either have been gifted or deserved more to do everything they can to make the communities around them as strong as they possibly can.
Jordan PetersonEncouragement to all women is – let us try to offer help before we have to offer therapy. That is to say, let’s see if we can’t prevent being ill by trying to offer a love of prevention before illness.
Maya AngelouI break ground. I trailblaze.
Dwayne JohnsonWhat I am looking for is not out there, it is in me.
Helen KellerThe beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair.
Audrey HepburnIn all my work, in the movies I write, the lyrics, the poetry, the prose, the essays, I am saying that we may encounter many defeats – maybe it’s imperative that we encounter the defeats – but we are much stronger than we appear to be and maybe much better than we allow ourselves to be. Human beings are more alike than unalike.
Maya AngelouKnowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.
James MadisonThere are a number of women who have brought about immense change in society.
A. P. J. Abdul KalamI am an example of what is possible when girls from the very beginning of their lives are loved and nurtured by people around them. I was surrounded by extraordinary women in my life who taught me about quiet strength and dignity.
Michelle ObamaWhy are women… so much more interesting to men than men are to women?
Virginia WoolfIn 1969, I gave up women and alcohol – it was the worst 20 minutes of my life.
George BestI love stories about women.
Clint EastwoodI have no interest in gender or race or anything like that. But everyone else is kind of, with their calculating – is this the exact right mix? I think that’s – to me it’s anti-comedy. It’s more about PC-nonsense.
Jerry SeinfeldA businessman is the only man who is forever apologizing for his occupation.
Gilbert K. ChestertonI believe that of all the things I have done, exciting though many of them have been, there’s no doubt in my mind that the most worthwhile have been the establishing of schools and hospitals, and the rebuilding of monasteries in the mountains.
Edmund HillaryNever bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye.
Helen KellerI hate the way they portray us in the media. If you see a black family it says they’re looting, if you see a white family it says they’re looking for food.
Kanye WestLove is the delusion that one woman differs from another.
H. L. MenckenI grew up upper-class. Private school. My dad had a Jaguar. We’re African-American, and we work together as a family, so people assume we’re like the Jacksons. But I didn’t have parents using me to get out of a bad situation.
Beyonce KnowlesA chaplain’s assistant is customarily a figure of fun in the American Army.
Kurt VonnegutSometimes, women in families put themselves last until it manifests itself in their own health.
Angelina JolieLet others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else’s hands, but not you.
Jim RohnI don’t believe we are supposed to go through life defeated and not having enough money to pay our bills or send our kids to college.
Joel OsteenI know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor.
Henry David ThoreauOver the holidays, and even during filming, I realized that I actually like my body, even if it’s not perfect according to the book. I just feel sexy. For the first time, I don’t want to get rid of the curves. I just want to tone it up. My body is comfortable, and it’s not unhealthy, so I’m going to rock with it.
RihannaTo lead people walk behind them.
Lao TzuI felt like, for so many years – and I still even feel it – as a girl, you can’t really expect to go on stage and dress like a boy and jump around and scream with the audience and mosh and stuff, and every time that happens, I feel really proud.
Billie EilishA gender line… helps to keep women not on a pedestal, but in a cage.
Ruth Bader GinsburgIn my work and in myself I reflect black people, women and men, as I reflect others. One day even the most self-protective ones will look into the mirror I provide and not be afraid.
Alice WalkerI love the women’s movement, and I never thought of it as belonging to any particular segment of the population.
Alice WalkerFashion is here to help make people look very important. If they have good taste and choose what suits them, I give them options on how they can do that. It’s always sexy, and it’s always with the same result: making women look fantastic.
Vivienne WestwoodMen and women do think differently, and frankly, we don’t understand each other. Not at all! But that’s what makes relationships so amazing.
Kevin HartA woman can bring a new love to each man she loves, providing there are not too many.
Marilyn MonroeOnly strength can cooperate. Weakness can only beg.
Dwight D. EisenhowerWomen have always been the strong ones of the world. The men are always seeking from women a little pillow to put their heads down on. They are always longing for the mother who held them as infants.
Coco ChanelThe happiest women, like the happiest nations, have no history.
George EliotIf you were the President of the United States or the Queen of England – you couldn’t have a person who would be more protective than my mother was for me. Which meant really that I could dare to do all sorts of things.
Maya Angelou
