“It is manifest therefore that they who have sovereign power, are immediate rulers of the church under Christ, and all others but subordinate to them.

—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
“For experience showed her that she had not, by marrying a man of a large fortune, obtained any great proportion of property which she could call her own or command at her pleasure.”
