“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The African race evidently are made to excel in that department which lies between the sensuousness and the intellectual—what we call the elegant arts.

—Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)
“After all, the chief business of the American people is business.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
