    Robert E. Lee (1807–1870)

    Even in harmonious families there is this double life: the group life, which is the one we can observe in our neighbour’s household, and, underneath, another—secret and passionate and intense—which is the real life that stamps the faces and gives character to the voices of our friends.

    Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    Science is, I believe, nothing but trained and organized common sense, differing from the latter only as a veteran may
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    [O]ur rules can have authority over such natural rights only as we have submitted to them. The rights of conscience we never submitted, we could not submit. We are answerable for them to our God.
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
