Answer 1

The quote that reveals something about what sets the Matchmaker apart from social norms is:

"Disregarding the customs of our time to educate only the sons he taught me how to read and write."

This quote highlights her father's progressive belief in educating her, which was not typical for women at the time. It showcases her unique position and perspective, as she was given the opportunity to learn and develop skills that put her in a role often reserved for men. This education ultimately empowers her to become a matchmaker, as she takes on a profession that challenges societal norms regarding women's roles and capabilities.
