Constraint Sets

Famous quotes containing the words constraint and/or sets:

“In America a woman loses her independence for ever in the bonds of matrimony. While there is less constraint on girls there than anywhere else, a wife submits to stricter obligations. For the former, her father’s house is a home of freedom and pleasure; for the latter, her husband’s is almost a cloister.”
—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

“There is a small steam engine in his brain which not only sets the cerebral mass in motion, but keeps the owner in hot water.”
