“This morning, there flew up the lane
A timid lady-bird to our bird-bath
And eyed her image dolefully as death;”

“It is perfectly right for a gentleman to say ladies and gentlemen, but a lady should say, gentlemen and ladies. You mention your friends name before you do your own. I always feel like rebuking any woman who says, ladies and gentlemen. It is a lack of good manners.”
—Susan B. Anthony (18201906)
