Famous quotes containing the words american and/or essays:

    The root of the discontent in American women is that they are too well educated.... There will be no real content among American women unless they are made and kept more ignorant or unless they are given equal opportunity with men to use what they have been taught. And American men will not be really happy until their women are.
    Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)

    I undertake the same project as Montaigne, but with an aim contrary to his own: for he wrote his Essays only for others, and I write my reveries only for myself.
    Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)
