The Inner Goddess Speaks Out. May We Quote You On That?
Reminder: Let the annual competition begin! In previous years we've enjoyed "Creating Goddesses for Contemporary Times" and writing "Goddess Poetry".

This year your challenge, should you accept it: Provide us with a quote, the author of the quote, and the name of a goddess that it exemplifies.

For example: "Be a Goddess, or a doormat." (Pablo Picasso) is one of my personal favorites and it certainly sounds like something that the goddess Aphrodite might have said!

Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "What lies behind us and lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." Although these words could have been spoken by any goddess, this quote reminds me of something Sophia, the Goddess of Wisdom also known as Asherah/Chokmah/Hecate/Lilith, might say. We grow in knowledge along the way, but without wisdom, what good is that knowledge? Sophia's spark, inner wisdom, is within us. It is what enables us to overcome the past and face the future. HINT: It's also known as "feminine intuition". All we must do to access it is to listen, know, and be true to our selves and our own inner goddess, whatever we may call her!

All our dreams can come true,
if we have the courage to pursue them.

This could have been the mantra of the Goddess Psyche. She faced so much adversity, so many challenges, but she kept her courage and ended up a big winner!

just a comment:
I think Picasso's quote is a bit more complicated than that. He said, "There are only two types of women: goddesses or doormats."
