Quote by Elizabeth Blackwell

"The true reason why so few women nowadays write much better than they do is that they are taught to aim at being elegant rather than at being emphatic or powerful."

"I declare to you that woman must not depend upon the protection of man, but must learn to protect herself, and there I take my stand."

"A woman must be able to maintain herself, and to do this she must be either sufficiently well educated to teach, or to have some special accomplishment or trade."

"The world grows by the admission of women to wider spheres of usefulness."

"Never let fear stop you from chasing your dreams."

"Courage is being afraid but doing it anyway."

"Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do."

"Sometimes you have to be the monster to stop the monsters."
