To plant a foot upon,
Were never in any place.”

“Before the birth of the New Woman the country was not an intellectual desert, as she is apt to suppose. There were teachers of the highest grade, and libraries, and countless circles in our towns and villages of scholarly, leisurely folk, who loved books, and music, and Nature, and lived much apart with them. The mad craze for money, which clutches at our souls to-day as la grippe does at our bodies, was hardly known then.”
—Rebecca Harding Davis (18311910)
“Bruno Antony: Tell me, Judge, after youve sentenced a man to the chair, isnt it difficult to go out and eat your dinner after that?

Bruno Antony: Quite impersonal, isnt it?
Judge Dolan: So it is. Besides, it doesnt happen every day.
Bruno Antony: So, few murderers are caught?”
—Raymond Chandler (18881959)
