Now girls are often raised to see love only as giving. Women
are praised for their love when that love is an act of giving.
But to love is to give AND to take. Please love by giving, and by
taking. Give and be given. If you are only giving and not taking,
you’ll know. You’ll know from that small and true
voice inside you that we females are so often socialized to
silence. Don’t silence that voice. Dare to
take. —Chimamanda Ngozi
