    Kindnesses are easily forgotten; but injuries!—what worthy man does not keep those in mind?
    —William Makepeace Thackeray (1811–1863)

    I hate to do what everybody else is doing. Why, only last week, on Fifth Avenue and some cross streets, I noticed that every feminine citizen of these United States wore an artificial posy on her coat or gown. I came home and ripped off every one of the really lovely refrigerator blossoms that were sewn on my own bodices.
    Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
