To follow-up on last month’s post of memorable quotations taken from my page-a-day calendar (which thus far has an overrepresentation of thoughts from Marilyn Monroe and Coco Chanel), here are a few more gems:
- “If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?” – Anonymous
-
“When women go wrong, men go right after them.” – Mae West
-
“People shop for a bathing suit with more care than they do for a husband or a wife. The rules are the same. Look for something you’ll feel comfortable wearing. Allow room for growth.” – Erma Bombeck
-
“Perhaps all human progress stems from the tension between two basic drives: to have just what everyone else has and to have what no one has.” – Judith Stone
And though I don’t want to disrespect the sentiment of International Women’s Day, I found it too ironic that of all days, I came across this definition in this month’s Alberta Venture magazine today:
- glass cliff – an important project or senior job given to a woman with a high risk of failure (cf. glass ceiling, e.g. Rona Ambrose)
