Famous quotes containing the words capital and/or journal:
“Woman—with a capital letter—should by now have ceased to be a specialty. There should be no more need of “movements” on her behalf, and agitations for her advancement and development ... than for the abolition of negro slavery in the United States.”

“I think this journal will be disadvantageous for me, for I spend my time now like a spider spinning my own entrails.”
