O, had I received the advantages of early education, my ideas would, ere now, have expanded far and wide; but, alas! I possess nothing but moral capabilityno teachings but the teachings of the Holy Spirit.”
—Maria Stewart (18031879)
“God and the Devil are an effort after specialization and the division of labor.”
—Samuel Butler (18351902)
