Wisdom, Inspiration, and Humor from the Mind and Heart
The words of Jewish women to inspire, enlighten, and enrich your life.

The Quotable Jewish Woman is the definitive collection of ideas, reflections, humor, and wit by Jewish women. Compiler Elaine Bernstein Partnow (The Quotable Woman) brings together the voices of over 300 women—including women of the Bible, actors, poets, humorists, scientists, and literary and political figures—whose ideas, activism, service, talent, and labor have touched the world.

"My mother, my aunts, my own grandmothers float back to me, young and vibrant once more, making days holy in the sanctuaries of their kitchens, feeding me, cradling me, connecting me to the intricately plaited braid of their past, and even at this moment, looking down the corridor of what’s to come, I see myself join them as they open their arms wide to enfold my children and grandchildren in their embrace."

—Faye Moskowitz, And the Bridge Is Love, 1991

"Four be the things I am wiser to know:
Idleness, sorrow, a friend, and a foe.
 
Four be the things I’d be better without:
Love, curiosity, freckles, and doubt."

—Dorothy Parker, "Inventory," Enough Rope, 1927


Elaine Bernstein Partnow is the author of several books, among them the now classic The Quotable Woman. She is the online columnist of "Women of Wisdom" for Feminist.com, as well as a performing artist and playwright. You can visit Elaine online at www.TheQuotableWoman.com.">
