“[T]ea, that uniquely English meal, that unnecessary collation at which no stimulantsneither alcohol nor meatare served, that comforting repast of which to partake is as good as second childhood.”
—Angela Carter (19401992)
“So long as State constitutions say that all may vote when twenty-one, save idiots, lunatics, convicts and women, you are brought down politically to the level of those others disfranchised.”
—Susan B. Anthony (18201906)
“Perhaps in His wisdom the Almighty is trying to show us that a leader may chart the way, may point out the road to lasting peace, but that many leaders and many peoples must do the building.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (18841962)
