“It is difficult to escape from the prevailing disease of one’s generation.”
—Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

“... there is nothing more irritating to a feminist than the average “Woman’s Page” of a newspaper, with its out-dated assumption that all women have a common trade interest in the household arts, and a common leisure interest in clothes and the doings of “high society.” Women’s interests to-day are as wide as the world.”
