“Nature, doubtless, has some compelling cause
To glut the carriers of her epidemics—
Nor did the peach complain.”

Waited till it was time,
And aimed between the belt and boot
And let the barrel climb.”

“Politics is still the man’s game. The women are allowed to do the chores, the dirty work, and now and then—but only occasionally—one is present at some secret conference or other. But it’s not the rule. They can go out and get the vote, if they can and will; they can collect money, they can be grateful for being permitted to work. But that is all.”
—Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)
