    “Defaced ruins of architecture and statuary, like the wrinkles of decrepitude of a once beautiful woman, only make one regret that one did not see them when they were enchanting.”
    —Horace Walpole (1717–1797)

    “The honor my country shall never be stained by an apology from me for the statement of truth and the performance of duty; nor can I give any explanation of my official acts except such as is due to integrity and justice and consistent with the principles on which our institutions have been framed.”
    —Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    “I must sojourn once to the ballot-box before I die. I hear the ballot-box is a beautiful glass globe, so you can see all the votes as they go in. Now, the first time I vote I’ll see if the woman’s vote looks any different from the rest—if it makes any stir or commotion. If it don’t inside, it need not outside.”
    —Sojourner Truth (c. 1797–1883)

    “And Saints—to windows run—
    To see the little Tippler
    Leaning against the—Sun—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
