Movies play a significant role in our lives. They have the ability to make us laugh, weep, make us angry, provoke our thoughts and can also motivate us for the best. And for a long time, our strong female characters from various films have been motivating and inspiring us, while teaching us the real meaning of feminism. Without a question, these badass boss ladies are iconic. We've compiled a collection of these incredible female characters and their killer quotes that made us scream "You Go Girl!"
"Women, they have minds, and they have souls, as well as just hearts. And they've got ambition, and they've got talent, as well as just beauty. I'm so sick of people saying that love is just all a woman is fit for."

"I would make a great queen because I am stubborn — if that's what I wanted."
"I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it"
"You think I'm just a doll. A doll that's pink and light. A doll you can arrange any way you like. You're wrong. Very wrong. What you think of me is only a ghost of time. I am dangerous. And I will show you just how dark I can be."
"I am not a prize to be won!"
"My courage always rises at every attempt to intimidate me."
