    ... for, however roguish a man may be, he always loves to deal with an honest man.
    William Cobbett (1762–1835)

    To suppose such a thing possible as a society, in which men, who are able and willing to work, cannot support their families, and ought, with a great part of the women, to be compelled to lead a life of celibacy, for fear of having children to be starved; to suppose such a thing possible is monstrous.
    —William Cobbett (1762–1835)
