Fiction has the power to show us feats of heroism, bravery, and strength, on a grander scale than anything we may see in our day-to-day lives. Therefore, the characters of these stories have the ability to influence their audience for the better. Here I have listed just a few inspiring female characters along with a few of their words of wisdom.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel.
