Wit and wisdom from A to Z—a super-sized collection of inspirational quotes from bad*ss women in history and today, including Oprah Winfrey, Marilyn Monroe, and Toni Morrison.

With more than 3,000 quotations on everything from fashion and feminism to men, marriage, friendship, history, technology, sports, and more, this massive compilation proves once and for all that women know everything! Each page offers wisdom, wit, and inspiration from a host of legendary women—from Jane Austen and Colette to Madonna, Marilyn Monroe, Toni Morrison, Liz Phair, Ellen DeGeneres, and Naomi Klein.

—Judy Garland

Family
