I like words. As a writer, I spend my days with words. It never ceases to amaze me that by taking a few words, putting them in a particular order, you can inspire someone to action, or move them to tears. Our words are our most precious commodity. I’m often inspired by what women have to say.
Since this is a busy writing week for me, I thought I’d share a few of my favorite quotes by women.
5 Inspired Quotes for Your Writing Dreams
1. “I think the woman who is able to earn her own living and pay her own way should be as happy as anybody on earth. The sense of independence and security is very sweet.” –Susan B. Anthony
2. “When we do the best we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another.” –Helen Keller
3. “If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun.” –Katharine Hepburn
