“Of all things in life, Mrs. Lee held this kind of court-service in contempt, for she was something more than republican—a little communistic at heart, and her only serious complaint of the President and his wife was that they undertook to have a court and to ape monarchy.

—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
“It is, all in all, a historic error to believe that the master makes the school; the students make it!”
