Girls Quotes

Often girls feel deeply cared about as small children but then find as we develop willpower and independent thought that the world stops affirming us, that we are seen as unlovable Picture Quote #1

We need all hands on deck, and that means clearing hurdles for women and girls as they navigate careers in science, technology, engineering, and math Picture Quote #1

Never ask a man where’s he’s been. If he’s out on legitimate business, he doesn’t need an alibi. And, girls, if he has been out on illegitimate business, it’s your own fault Picture Quote #1

If you ever want to see heaven, watch a bunch of young girls play. They are all sweat and skinned knees. Energy and open faces Picture Quote #1

On every continent, there are girls who will go on to change the world in ways we can only imagine, if only we allow them the freedom to dream Picture Quote #1

I used to get bullied by the popular girls at school. Today, I am the popular girl, and the bullies come to my shows Picture Quote #1

I’m convinced that a world in which girls are educated is a safer, more stable, more prosperous place Picture Quote #1

And then, going to high school, I saw how popular girls had to behave to get the boys. I knew I couldn’t fit into that. So I decided to do the opposite. I refused to wear makeup, to have a hairstyle. I refused to shave. I had hairy armpits Picture Quote #1

The evidence shows that investing in women and girls delivers major benefits for society. An educated woman has healthier children. She is more likely to send them to school. She earns more and invests what she earns in her family Picture Quote #1

Young girls like the excess of any quality. Without knowing, they want to suffer, to suffer they must exaggerate; they like to have loud chords struck on them Picture Quote #1

Girls have a way of knowing or feeling what you feel, but they usually like to hear it also Picture Quote #1

I don’t like that sort of school... where the bright childish imagination is utterly discouraged... where I have never seen among the pupils, whether boys or girls, anything but little parrots and small calculating machines Picture Quote #1

One of the biggest motivations for me with writing my books is to offer girls some escapism, especially girls who really need it, like I did Picture Quote #1

I am so tired of fear. And I don’t want my girls to live in a country, in a world, based on fear Picture Quote #1

As much as I’m drawn to writing about teenage girls, I like the idea of having the freedom to branch out and write about different ages, for different ages Picture Quote #1

Some girls they like candy and others they like to grind. I’ll settle for the back of your hand somewhere on my behind Picture Quote #1

Mama always told me, be careful what you do, don’t go around breaking young girls hearts Picture Quote #1

These girls wouldn’t let just anybody spew on their vital parts, they wanted a guy from a group with a big hit song on the charts Picture Quote #1

Even when I wasn’t overweight I was never one of those girls or women who wanted to look nice. I always thought it wasn’t important Picture Quote #1

Girls blush, sometimes, because they are alive, half wishing they were dead to save the shame. The sudden blush devours them, neck and brow; They have drawn too near the fire of life, like gnats, and flare up bodily, wings and all. What then? Who’s sorry for a gnat or girl? Picture Quote #1

Passive acceptance of the teacher’s wisdom is easy to most boys and girls. It involves no effort of independent thought, and seems rational because the teacher knows more than his pupils; it is moreover the way to win the favour of the teacher unless he is a very exceptional man. Yet the habit of passive acceptance is a disastrous one in later life. It causes man to seek and to accept a leader, and to accept as a leader whoever is established in that position Picture Quote #1

What was beauty unless you intended to use it, like a hammer, or a key? It was just something for other people to use and admire, or envy, despise. To nail their dreams onto like a picture hanger on a blank wall. And so many girls saying, use me, dream me Picture Quote #1

I have often been downcast, but never in despair; I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary I treat all the privations as amusing. I have made up my mind now to lead a different life from other girls and, later on, different from ordinary housewives. My start has been so very full of interest, and that is the sole reason why I have to laugh at the humorous side of the most dangerous moments Picture Quote #1

Girls, like men, want to be petted, pitied, and made much of, when they are diffident, in low spirits, or in unrequited love. These are services which the weak cannot render to the strong and which the strong will not render to the weak, except when there is also a difference of sex Picture Quote #1

Girls get competitive, as though there’s only one spot in the world for everything _ but that’s not true. We need to stick together and see there’s more to life than pleasing men. It’s important not to cut yourself off from female friendships. I think sometimes girls get scared of other girls, but you need each other Picture Quote #1

On every film I do, whenever there are other girls my age, I think it’s definitely up to me to set the pace. That’s because I’ve had a lot of experience, and I think there’s always a certain amount of professionalism that should be maintained. If I was catty or whatever, it would just make the whole shoot unpleasant. And what’s the point of that? Picture Quote #1

I remember when I was in high school I didn’t have a new dress for each special occasion. The girls would bring the fact to my attention, not always too delicately. The boys, however, never bothered with the subject. They were my friends, not because of the size of my wardrobe but because they liked me Picture Quote #1

When I get up and work out, I’m working out just as much for my girls as I am for me, because I want them to see a mother who loves them dearly, who invests in them, but who also invests in herself. It’s just as much about letting them know as young women that it is okay to put yourself a little higher on your priority list Picture Quote #1

Now that virtually every career is an option for ambitious girls, it can no longer be considered regressive or reactionary to reintroduce discussion of marriage and motherhood to primary education. We certainly do not want to return to the simplistic duality of home economics classes for girls and wood shop for boys Picture Quote #1

Ever since I was younger I wanted to be on stage, singing my songs in a glittering costume. And that happened and is still happening. I have to remember that this is what I wished for and be grateful because there are 500 other girls right behind me that are ready to snatch it up Picture Quote #1
