    always
    at our finger tips.

    Don’t look forward to the day you stop suffering, because when it comes you’ll know you’re dead.
    —Tennessee Williams (1914–1983)

    In America a woman loses her independence for ever in the bonds of matrimony. While there is less constraint on girls there than anywhere else, a wife submits to stricter obligations.

    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
