—Herman Melville (18191891)
“If you think it will only add one sprig to the wreath the country twines to bind the brows of my hero, I will run the risk of being sneered at by those who criticize female productions of all kinds. ...Though a female, I was born a patriot.”
—Annie Boudinot Stockton (17361801)
“Eternity is in love with the productions of time.”
—William Blake (17571827)
