Quotes

Just a short post with this one.
"Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence. True friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation." * George Washington (1732 - 1799)
"A woman can and must have an identity and feel useful, valued, and needed whether she is single or married. She must feel that she can do something for someone else that no one else ever born can do" (Pres. James E. Faust "What It Means to Be a Daughter of God," Liahona, Jan. 2000, 123–24; Ensign, Nov. 1999, 102)

Both quotes are good, but I think Pres. Faust is right on target. We women do need to feel we are here to do something that only we can do. Wonder if men feel the same way?

Great inspirational quotes. I needed those today. Every woman NEEDS and CRAVES validation-especially stay=at=homes. We don't get a pay check for our efforts--so we need something.
