As we continue to celebrate Women's History Month, we turn to some of the most successful ladies in music, to hear their opinions on not only how to achieve, but also thrive in the predominantly male business of music as well as life.

“As women, we have to start appreciating our own worth and each other’s worth. Seek out strong women to befriend, to align yourself with, to learn from, to collaborate with, to be inspired by, to support and be enlightened by. True solidarity amongst women is a power on its own.”- Madonna

“You don’t have to look like everybody else. You don’t have to be a raving beauty to be special and to be beautiful.”- Dolly Parton

"I didn’t think my songs would become anthems for women. But I’m delighted. Women probably immediately feel compassion and relate to the lyrics. We can all learn a little something from each other, so whatever people can take and be inspired by where my music is concerned is great." -Aretha Franklin

“Some women choose to follow men and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you're wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn't love you anymore.”- Lady Gaga

“You can't just sit there and wait for people to give you that golden dream. You've got to get out there and make it happen for yourself." - Diana Ross

“Women have to take the time to focus on our mental health—take time for self, for the spiritual, without feeling guilty or selfish. The world will see you the way you see you, and treat you the way you treat yourself.”- Beyoncé

“I find that the very things that I get criticized for, which is usually being different and just doing my own thing and just being original, is the very thing that's making me successful.” – Shania Twain
