    We are doomed to cling to a life even while we find it unendurable.

    We don’t need to connect. The prairie landscape isolates us from each other as well as from our history.
    —Kathleen Norris (b. 1947)

    I hope there will be no effort to put up a shaft or any monument of that sort in memory of me or of the other women who have given themselves to our work. The best kind of a memorial would be a school where girls could be taught everything useful that would help them to earn an honorable livelihood; where they could learn to do anything they were capable of, just as boys can. I would like to have lived to see such a school as that in every great city of the United States.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
