Conversation is almost dead, and soon so too will be those who knew how to speak.”
—Guy Debord (b. 1931)
“The education of females has been exclusively directed to fit them for displaying to advantage the charms of youth and beauty. ... though well to decorate the blossom, it is far better to prepare for the harvest.”
