Quotes From Women I Admire
***“The best index to a person's character is how he treats people who can't do him any good, and how he treats people who can't fight back.”*** **― Abigail Van Buren** Abigail Van Buren, nationally recognized as the nice lady you could write to for advice because she had all the right answers.

Even if I'm from the Philippines, I've heard of her from the radio. She was amazing!
And she had a sister. Her advice column was "Dear Abby" an her sister's was "Dear Ann".
