Women Quotes
-
Nearly all men and women are poetical, to some extent, but very few can be called poets. There are great poets, small poets, and men and women who make verses. But all are not poets, nor even good versifiers. Poetasters are plentiful, but real poets are rare. Education can not make a poet, though it may polish and develop one.

Wherever you are in life, just keep on that path, and so for me, sometimes as women, we forget - we forget that about ourselves.
