    No contracts, entails, hereditaments,
    Anything at all that might tie or hem.”
    —William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)

    “Young women ... you are, in my opinion, disgracefully ignorant. You have never made a discovery of any sort of importance. You have never shaken an empire or led an army into battle.

    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
