“When the excessively shy force themselves to be forward, they are frequently surprisingly unsubtle and overdirect and even rude: they have entered an extreme region beyond their normal personality, an area of social crime where gradations don’t count; unavailable to them are the instincts and taboos that booming extroverts, who know the territory of self-advancement far better, can rely on.”

“I would wish that the women of our country could embrace ... [the responsibilities] of citizenship as peculiarly their own.

The whole plane of political life would be lifted.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
