My cousin Carrie in Hamilton sent me an email the other day, and as we hadn't communicated too much in recent years, she recapped what had been happening in her life over the past decade. One gem really stood out:
A long time ago I realized that since I'll never be rich or famous, I might as well try to be kind and useful. -- Carrie N
In honour of my cousin and her folksy words of wisdom, here are some more positively inspiring sayings from women:
"Well-behaved women seldom make history." -- Laurel Thatcher Ulrich
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. -- Helen Keller
The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward. -- Amelia Earhart
If you surrender to the wind, you can ride it. -- Toni Morrison
Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the ground each morning the devil says, "OH CRAP, SHE'S UP"! -- Anonymous
