    “... men and women are not yet free.... The slavery of greed endures. Little child workers, the hope of the future, are sacrificed to industry. Young men are sent out by the billion to die for profits.... We must destroy industrial slavery and build industrial democracy.... The people everywhere must come into possession of the earth [second, third, and fourth ellipses in source].”
    —Sara Bard Field (1882–1974)

    “The designers [of the 1930s] were populists, you see; they were trying to give the public what it wanted. What the public wanted was the future.”
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)

    “I am ill, but your being by me
    Cannot amend me; society is no comfort
    To one not sociable. I am not very sick,
    Since I can reason of it.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Women of my age in America are at the mercy of two powerful and antagonistic traditions. The first is the ultradomestic fifties with its powerful cult of motherhood; the other is the strident feminism of the seventies with its attempt to clone the male competitive model.... Only in America are these ideologies pushed to extremes.”
    —Sylvia Ann Hewitt (20th century)
