—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“As Cuvier could correctly describe a whole animal by the contemplation of a single bone, so the observer who has thoroughly understood one link in a series of incidents should be able to accurately state all the other ones, both before and after.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
“The appearances of goodness and merit often meet with a greater reward from the world than goodness and merit themselves.”
