    It is to be lamented that the principle of national has had very little nourishment in our country, and, instead, has given place to sectional or state partialities. What more promising method for remedying this defect than by uniting American women of every state and every section in a common effort for our whole country.
    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)

    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    I don’t pan out on the prophets
    An’ free-will, an’ that sort of thing—
    But I b’lieve in God an’ the angels,
    Ever sence one night last spring.
    John Milton Hay (1838–1905)

    And when we find ourselves in the place just right
    ‘Twill be in the valley of love and delight.
    —Unknown. ‘Tis the Gift to Be Simple.
