Let Me Be a Woman

p. 55 - "...as a pillar is cut and shaped to fit into a particular place and carry a specific weight, it is by that cutting and shaping differentiated and limited. It is the very differentiation and limitation that that pillar has to offer. So with us.

p. 89 - Elisabeth Elliot, when she was proposed to a second time: "I told this man that I knew there were women waiting for him who could offer him many things I couldn't offer—things like beauty and money. But, said I, 'There's one thing I can give you that no woman on earth can outdo me in and that's appreciation.'"
