Quotable Women ~ February 2nd

“Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.”

~ Coco Chanel (1883-1971), French Fashion Designer

Quotable Women ~ January 8th

“It’s probably not just by chance that I’m alone. It would be very hard for a man to live with me, unless he’s terribly strong. And if he’s stronger than I, I’m the one who can’t live with him. … I’m neither smart nor stupid, but I don’t think I’m a run-of-the-mill person. I’ve been in business without being a businesswoman, I’ve loved without being a woman made only for love. The two men I’ve loved, I think, will remember me, on earth or in heaven, because men always remember a woman who caused them concern and uneasiness. I’ve done my best, in regard to people and to life, without precepts, but with a taste for justice.”

~ Coco Chanel (1883-1971),  French Fashion Designer
