The most important people in history aren't always picture-perfect, flawless heroes. Take Elizabeth and Emily Blackwell, for example - the first women in the U.S. to receive medical degrees. They wrote descriptively about their squeamishness and disgust of sick people. Or, consider the fact that neither sister thought of themselves as radical, despite becoming pioneers for women's equality in a time when such a topic was still taboo.
