“A very precious and lovely part, but not all,” continued Rose. “Neither should it be for a woman: for we’ve got minds and souls as well as hearts; ambition and talents as well as beauty and accomplishments; and we want to live and learn as well as love and be loved.

― Louisa May Alcott, Rose in Bloom

“Your eyes seem to be expecting miracles I would be most honored and willing to perform.”
