    “My Lord Bath, you and I are now two as insignificant men as any in England.”
    —Robert Walpole (1676–1745)

    “As humans have a prior right to existence over dogs by virtue of being more highly evolved and having a superior consciousness, so women have a prior right to existence over men. The elimination of any male is, therefore, a righteous and good act, an act highly beneficial to women as well as an act of mercy.”
