    “Women, because of their colonial relationship to men, have to fight for their own independence.

Only the independent woman can be truly effective in the larger revolutionary struggle.”

But duets have greater harmonic possibilities and are more interesting to listen to, so long as cacophony or dissonance remains at acceptable levels.”
    —Kyle D. Pruett (20th century)

    “Nothing in medieval dress distinguished the child from the adult. In the seventeenth century, however, the child, or at least the child of quality, whether noble or middle-class, ceased to be dressed like the grown-up. This is the essential point: henceforth he had an outfit reserved for his age group, which set him apart from the adults. These can be seen from the first glance at any of the numerous child portraits painted at the beginning of the seventeenth century.”
    —Philippe Ariés (20th century)

    “My only rival, the United States cavalry.”
