Anne Lamott

Tuesday's Girl

"Reproductive choice must be straightened out.  There will never be a woman of means without choice anymore.  That just seems to me so obvious.  The states that changed their abortion law before Roe are not going to change back.  So we have a policy that only affects poor women, and it can never be otherwise."

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Tuesday's Girl

"I have learned not to worry about love; but to honor its coming with all my heart."

"There is no real security except for whatever you build inside yourself."

Gilda Radner 

Tuesday's Girl

"People always ask me:  'You have so much confidence - where did that come from?'  It came from me.  One day I decided that I was beautiful, and so I carried out my life as if I was a beautiful girl.... It doesn't have anything to do with how the world perceives you.  What matters is what you see.  Your body is your temple, your home, and you must decorate it."

Gabourey Sidibe

"Pick the day.  Enjoy it - to the hilt.  The day as it comes.  People as they come.....  The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present - and I don't want to spoil any of it by fretting about the future."

Audrey Hepburn

Tuesday's Girl

"You don't always win your battles, but it's good to know you fought."

Lauren Bacall

Tuesday's Girl

"I did not want to be anything more.  I was entirely happy.  Perhaps we feel like that when we die and become a part of something entire, whether it is sun and air, or goodness and knowledge.  At any rate, that is happiness; to be dissolved into something complete and great.  When it comes to one, it comes as naturally as sleep."

Willa Cather 

Tuesday's Girl

'If you are going to be underestimated by people who speak more rapidly, the temptation is to speak slowly and strategically and outwit them.'
