Quotes & Poems

[gibbonsgal]

Does anyone have any quotes or poems about sisterhood & sorority life? I just got my big and wanted to start a quote book for her. I have only one or two...anything is helpful and appreciated.

See if you can find any books by Susan Polis Schultz - she has a lot of great sisterly-type poems.

Someone once posted this on the board & I thought it was so sweet I saved it.

"The Greek That's Written There"

It makes little difference
The size of your pin
Whether it's large or small,
And if its plain
Or brilliant with jewels
Is of no concern at all,


But the vows that you took
Along with your pin,
Have you worn them constantly,
Quietly, deep in the heart
Where no one looks to see?


Have you touched the stars
You reached for once
In your own small piece of sky?
Have you striven for the honorable,
The beautiful, and the high?


What difference then
The shape of the badge,
Be it
Diamond or quill or square
The important thing is
How much do you love
The pin you chose to wear?

For one-liners I like Ani DiFranco, even though she can be controversial. Look at the one below I use with my sig. To me this says a lot about where we are at this stage in our life.

"Its a long long road, its a wide wide world, we are wise wise women, we are giggling girls."
