In her exhibit at the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame in Fort Worth, Dale Evans is quoted, accordingly: "'Cowgirl' is an attitude really. A pioneer spirit, a special American brand of courage. The cowgirl faces life head-on, lives by her own lights, and makes no excuses. Cowgirls take stands; they speak up. They defend things they hold dear."
