In case you weren’t aware, March is Women’s History Month. In recognition of this inspiring month, we gathered 25 epic quotes from famous women that we believe will inspire you to be push barriers, kick in the glass ceiling, change the world, and become everything you were created to be:

~Mother Teresa
“Each person must live their life as a model for others.”

“You can do anything you want, even if you are being told negative things. Stay strong and find motivation.”
~Misty Copeland
“The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams.”

“Never limit yourself because of others’ limited imagination; never limit others because of your own limited imagination.”

“It is only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on Earth and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it were the only one we had.”
~Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
“You reflect on the people who used to be in your life, and it’s like, ‘Wow, I can’t believe that person was ever really in my life.’ But people are put into your life for seasons, for different reasons, and to teach you lessons.”
~Selena Gomez
“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
~Maya Angelou
“There are still many causes worth sacrificing for, so much history yet to be made.”
~First Lady Michelle Obama
“Never quit. Never give up.”

“To do what you wanna do, to leave a mark – in a way that you think is important and lasting – that’s a life well-lived.”

“What you know today can affect what you do tomorrow. But what you know today cannot affect what you did yesterday.”~Condoleezza Rice
“I’m intimidated by the fear of being average.” ~Taylor Swift

“I don’t want to get to the end of my life and find that I have lived just the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well.”
~Diane Ackerman
“Women somehow get portrayed as one type. You’re either a feminist or you’re not. You’re a working woman or you’re not. I’m raising two girls, and I say to them, ‘I need you to be strong and soft. You can be smart and beautiful… You can be all of these things.”
~Maria Shriver
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
~Marianne Williamson,
