   My mother told me stories all the time...And in all of those stories she told me who I  was, who I was supposed to be, whom I came from, and who would follow me...  ~ Paula Gunn Allen, in The Sacred Hoop 

History looks different when the contributions of women are included. ~ National Women's History Project

Remember our heritage is our power; we can know ourselves and our capacities by seeing that other women have been strong. ~ Judy Chicago

The young women of today, free to study, to speak, to write, to choose their occupation, should remember that every inch of this freedom was bought for them at a great price. It is for them to show their gratitude by helping onward the reforms of their own times, by spreading the light of freedom and of truth still wider. The debt that each generation owes to the past it must pay to the future. ~ Abigail Scott Duniway

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. ~ Eleanor Roosevelt
