“The care of a house, the conduct of a home, the management of children, the instruction and government of servants, are as deserving of scientific treatment and scientific professors and lectureships as are the care of farms, the management of manure and crops, and the raising and care of stock.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
“[Madness] is the jail we could all end up in. And we know it. And watch our step. For a lifetime. We behave.

—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
