    “What use soever be made of truth, yet truth is truth, and now the question is not, what is fit to be preached, but what is true.”

    “So immense are the claims on a mother, physical claims on her bodily and brain vigor, and moral claims on her heart and thoughts, that she cannot ... meet them all and find any large margin beyond for other cares and work. She serves the community in the very best and highest way it is possible to do, by giving birth to healthy children, whose physical strength has not been defrauded, and to whose moral and mental nature she can give the whole of her thoughts.”
    —Frances Power Cobbe (1822–1904)
