There are three words that almost anyone will take his or her wallet out for when they're spoken: Girl Scout cookies. 'Tis the season for these yummy snacks, and to help celebrate that fact I've rounded up ten quotes about Girl Scout cookies that are super relatable for women from all walks of life. These quotes cover tons of ground, from the cookies themselves, to the Girl Scouts organization, to the magic of baked goods. If you haven't placed an order for some Girl Scout cookies yet this year, these quotes are certainly going to make you want to do so soon... and in bulk.

Whether you were the one selling cookies in your childhood or whether you are the one eating cookies now (or both!), these ten quotes should strike some chords with you. The Girl Scouts is one of America's first female empowerment organizations that focuses in on girls specifically, and that, my friends, is a wonderful thing.

Support the Girl Scouts this year by buying some cookies (it's such an easy thing to do, right?). Not only will you be helping to empower young women across the country, but you'll be satisfying that deep-seated craving that only Girl Scout cookies can appease.
