“But this I know; the writer who possesses the creative gift owns something of which he is not always master—something that at times strangely wills and works for itself....

—Charlotte Brontë (1816–1855)
“Whenever any form of government shall become destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, & to institute new government, laying it’s foundation on such principles & organising it’s powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety & happiness.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
