“A scholar, in his Segmenta, left a note,
As follows, The Ruler of Reality,
If more unreal than New Haven, is not
A real ruler, but rules what is unreal.”

“However patriarchal the world, at home the child knows that his mother is the source of all power. The hand that rocks the cradle rules his world. . . . The son never forgets that he owes his life to his mother, not just the creation of it but the maintenance of it, and that he owes her a debt he cannot conceivably repay, but which she may call in at any time.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
