    “English life, while very pleasant, is rather bland. I expected kindness and gentility and I found it, but there is such a thing as too much couth.”
    —S.J. Perelman (1904–1979)

    “The happiest two-job marriages I saw during my research were ones in which men and women shared the housework and parenting. What couples called good communication often meant that they were good at saying thanks to one another for small aspects of taking care of the family. Making it to the school play, helping a child read, cooking dinner in good spirit, remembering the grocery list,... these were silver and gold of the marital exchange.”
    —Arlie Hochschild (20th century)

    “As there is a use in medicine for poisons, so the world cannot move without rogues.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The exquisite art of idleness, one of the most important things that any University can teach.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “The Republican Party does not perceive how many his failure will make to vote more correctly than they would have them. They have counted the votes of Pennsylvania & Co., but they have not correctly counted Captain Brown’s vote. He has taken the wind out of their sails,—the little wind they had,—and they may as well lie to and repair.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
