I’ve been sharing quotes by women for a long time! Here are just a few. If you’re on Facebook, I hope you’ll follow my Quotes by Women page.
NOVELIST, ESSAYIST, EDITOR, PROFESSOR
“Chloe Anthony Wofford Morrison, known as Toni Morrison, was an American novelist, essayist, book editor, and college professor. Her first novel, The Bluest Eye, was published in 1970. The critically acclaimed Song of Solomon brought her national attention and won the National Book Critics Circle Award.” Wikipedia
Many of these great quotes came from great books! Tara Brach’s book Radical Acceptance gave me plenty to think about when I read it. Since that time she has expanded her offerings and her reach. Find out more on her website. I suspect I will be adding more of her words to the Quotes by Women category on Aging Abundantly.
You will find Daisy Hickman, writer, author, poet, memorist, student of society and culture and founder of Sunny Room Studio. You will find her on Facebook where she has a knack of making us think!
Who didn’t love Rhoda!
(Valeria Harper – a woman of wisdom and courage to the end)
“Angela Anaïs Juana Antolina Rosa Edelmira Nin y Culmell, known professionally as Anaïs Nin, was a French-Cuban-American diarist, essayist, novelist and writer of short stories and erotica.

These are great quotes. As a matter of fact, I used the Anais Nin quote in my memoir, Mennonite Daughter, which I believe you have read. 🙂
I have read your memoir, Marian. It was a delightful read. Hope it is being widely read.
I love all of these quotes! Thanks.
