—Carrie Chapman Catt (1859–1947)
“I believe that history has shape, order, and meaning; that exceptional men, as much as economic forces, produce change; and that passé abstractions like beauty, nobility, and greatness have a shifting but continuing validity.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“Psychology keeps trying to vindicate human nature. History keeps undermining the effort.”
