  15. @kpress Of course, you are a wonderful mother, too. But my allegiance in this case must go to Mrs. Draper.
  16. @shortyawards I nominate @bettydraper for a Shorty Award in #entertainment because...she is such a good mother.
  17. When women are encouraged to be competitive, too many of them become disagreeable.
