“The misery of the middle-aged woman is a grey and hopeless thing, born of having nothing to live for, of disappointment and resentment at having been gypped by consumer society, and surviving merely to be the butt of its unthinking scorn.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
“Oh! breathe not his name, let it sleep in the shade,
Where cold and unhonour’d his relics are laid.”
