Quotes About Girls

Good girls hold their heads high by daylight, Their grace and their virtue soaring with kites, While bad girls slink along in their shame- Everyone stares at them, everyone blames.

Sometimes the issue is about whether families and communities think girls are even worthy of an education in the first place.
