“Female Virtues are of a Domestick turn. The Family is the proper Province for Private Women to Shine in.

—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
“And Zeus will destroy this race of mortal men too, when they, at their birth, have grey hair on their temples.”

“Don here-and-there, Don epileptic;
Don puffed and empty, Don dyspeptic;
Don middle-class, Don sycophantic,
Don dull, Don brutish, Don pedantic;”
—Hilaire Belloc (1870–1953)
