“don’t open the door because you’re incapable. My mother told me you open the door for a woman because she deserves to make an entrance. I don’t walk closest to the traffic because I’m afraid you’ll swoon or get so distracted you’ll walk into the street. I do it because God forbid a car loses control, I’d want you to be safe. None of this is a reflection on your competence; it’s a testament to your worth. I believe women deserve to be treated special, because they are. I can’t put into words what the women in my life have done to shape me. I think that alone makes you all worth a little more.”
― Danielle Stewart, Hearts of Clover: Half My Heart & Change My Heart

“It is one thing to be clever and another to be wise.”

“It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.”
