The first encyclopedic volume of the insights, contemplations, and inspirations of women. From suffragists to liberationists, from authors to educators; Susan B. Anthony and Charlotte Bronte to Gloria Steinem and Lillian Hellman, their voices are here subtle and strident, temperate and torrid. This book covers an almost unlimited range of thoughts and emotion. Familiar and unfamiliar quotations of women, featuring over 8,000 quotations authored by 1,300 contributors--all women.
