Partnow, Elain, Comp. and Ed. The Quotable Woman: 1800-1975. Los Angeles: Corwin, 1977. (Olin and Uris Stacks: PN6081.5 .Q98)
Partnow has scoured innumerable sources to come up with an astounding number of quotable sayings, all from the mouths or pens of women, who are rarely represented in most books of quotations. The arrangement is chronological so the name index at the back of the book is crucial as a finding tool. This index also provides some identification (e.g. American playwright, Russian actress,etc.) for each entry. A further index by subject provides access to quotes on specific topics.
