Someone asked for quotes from women without leaving any of their favorites, so I went and found some that I liked.
"When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.” ~ Helen Keller
“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.” ~ Anais Nin
“What I cannot love, I overlook” ~ Anais Nin
“Sometimes questions are more important than answers.” ~ Nancy Willard
“A person who can write a long letter with ease, cannot write ill.” ~ Jane Austen
“For most of history, Anonymous was a woman.” ~ Virginia Woolf
“The truth is not for all men, but only for those who seek it.” ~ Ayn Rand
“Hope is the feeling that the feeling you have isn't permanent.” ~ Jean Kerr
“Lead me not into temptation; I can find the way myself.” ~ Rita Mae Brown
And my favorite, even though it's not a quote by a woman:
"Biologically speaking, if something bites you, it is more likely to be female." ~ Desmond Morris
(I love me my bug quotes.)
