A compendium of inspiring, witty, and nasty quotations by and about powerful women through history. When Donald Trump referred to Hillary Clinton as "such a nasty woman" during a presidential debate in 2016, women everywhere-whatever their politics or feelings about Clinton-felt a jolt of recognition. In response, they promptly turned his insult into an empowering slogan. This book celebrates women's power and resilience with quotes that demonstrate what it means to be nasty. The book includes entries from women of the ancient world like Cleopatra; freedom fighters like Harriet Tubman; founding mothers like Mary Wollstonecraft and Elizabeth Cady Stanton; and feminist icons such as Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan. It also features the words of politicians and government leaders; groundbreakers in arts and culture; celebrities; and the mothers, daughters, and sisters at home
