Texas women have been eloquent commentators on the life and times of Texans from pioneer days to the present. Hundreds of memorable quotes and quips pay historical tribute to their insights and experiences. Presented in alphabetical order by subject and indexed by author, the quotes include such gems as:It's not just enough to swing at the ball. You've got to loosen your girdle and let 'er fly. - Babe Didrikson Zaharias; Every expert in this world started out as a beginner. - Suzann Thompson; At the end of your life, you will never regret not having passed one more test, winning one more verdict, or not closing one more deal. You will regret time not spent with a husband, a child, a friend, or a parent. - Barbara Bush; I am Woman - hear me roar...Or is that my vacuum cleaner? - Liz Carpenter; Somewhere deep down, I really feel that every Texas woman ought to own a pair of red boots - even if she never wears them. - Betty Sue Flowers; If Texas were a sane place, it wouldn't be nearly as much fun. - Molly Ivins
