    Mr. Roosevelt, this is my principal request—it is almost the last request I shall ever make of anybody.

I beg of you not to close your term of office without doing this.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

    The masochist: “I send my tormentor hurrying hither and thither in the service of my suffering and desire.”
