“...there was the annual Fourth of July picketing at Independence Hall in Philadelphia. ...I thought it was ridiculous to have to go there in a skirt.

—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“No man ever came to an experience which was satiating, but his good is tidings of a better. Onward and onward!”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
