“I would that I were worthy to be any man’s Friend.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“just like you sitting
there they come and talk to me, just the same.
They come to bother us. Why? I said I don’t
know. Perhaps to find out what we are doing.
Jealous, do you think? I don’t know.”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
“The goods of fortune ... were never intended to be talked out of the world.—But as virtue and true wisdom lie in the middle of extremes,—on one hand, not to neglect and despise riches, so as to forget ourselves,—and on the other, not to pursue and love them so, as to forget God;Mto have them sometimes in our heads,—but always something more important in our hearts.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“After school days are over, the girls ... find no natural connection between their school life and the new one on which they enter, and are apt to be aimless, if not listless, needing external stimulus, and finding it only prepared for them, it may be, in some form of social excitement. ...girls after leaving school need intellectual interests, well regulated and not encroaching on home duties.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
