But yet even these were not quite so dreadful to her as to retire and be subjected to her own company alone.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
“There is also a reasonable tolerance: reason tolerates the reasonable. It is, however, almost tautological to call this ‘tolerance’ any longer, as it becomes a matter of course.”
