March 8 every year is celebrated as International Women's Day. Though a special day is not required to celebrate women and womanhood, this day can act as a good reminder for society to value and cherish the gender that has contributed immensely to its growth. March 8 is the holiday that encourages all people to actively choose to "celebrate women's achievements and raise awareness about women's equality. 

It was the revolutionary women of the 20th century who agitated for achieving greater equality and less oppressive working conditions for them as well as the generations of women to come. The Suffragette movement of the early 20th century began in Britain but paved the way for women to achieve greater involvement in society, through voting rights. Thanks to the movement, the status of women was raised from being merely the workers in a factory to becoming active citizens who could shape the course of culture and politics. While the world is still a long way from creating a free and fair environment for women, movements like Black Lives Matter and #Metoo will pave ways for more women to stand tall and fight against injustice. Here are some Women's Day Quotes in English to wish Happy Women's Day, to the fierce and ferocious women in your life.

i want to apologize to all the women i have called beautiful
before i’ve called them intelligent or brave
i am sorry i made it sound as though
something as simple as what you’re born with
is all you have to be proud of
when you have broken mountains with your wit
from now on i will say things like
you are resilient, or you are extraordinary
not because i don’t think you’re beautiful
but because i need you to know
you are more than that
― Rupi Kaur

The kindest words my father said to me
Women like you drown oceans.
― Rupi Kaur, Milk and Honey
