Today on International Women’s Day we celebrate togetherness and we bring to you some of the powerful quotes written by women writers. International Women’s Day is celebrated annually to acknowledge the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women across the globe. It falls on March 8 every year and is celebrated by almost every other women’s brand reminding us to feel empowered, while standing up for the equality and freedom for ladies. While women have proved themselves as fierce fighters, they are still called the weaker sex irrespective of the milestones they have achieved.
