    —Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    “Nothing can be colder than his head, when the lightnings of his imagination are playing in the sky.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
    —Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
