I have taken my time, reading and appreciating Words to Live By: 50 Inspiring Quotes by 50 Inspiring Women illustrated by Jade Purple Brown. (I first wrote about this book, and specifically one quote, a month ago. If you missed that post, you can read it here.)

I have now completed the book, and this week, I am sharing a few of my favorite quotes with you:

“Figure out what you need to do to be the heroine of your own story.” – Ava DuVernay

“Do ordinary things with extraordinary love.” – Mother Teresa

“What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.” – Jane Goodall

“Real change, enduring change, happens one step at a time.” – Ruth Bader Ginsburg 

“You are powerful and your voice matters.” – Kamala Harris

“It is never too late to be what you might have been.” – George Eliot

Dear Readers, do any of these quotes resonate with you? Or, do you have a favorite quote? Feel free to share in the comments.
