    “How much more interesting an event is that man’s supper who has just been forth in the snow to hunt, nay, you might say, steal, the fuel to cook it with! His bread and meat are sweet.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “When children dress like adults they are more likely to behave as adults do, to imitate adult actions. It is hard to walk like an adult male wearing corduroy knickers that make an awful noise. But boys in long pants can walk like men, and little girls in tight jeans can walk like women.”
    —David Elkind (20th century)

    “Oh! that’s in course—I do love him; why wouldn’t I? for he has a nice little room all decently furnished for any young woman to go into—besides the shop; and he never has the horses at all into the one we sleeps in, as is to be.”
    —Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
