    It is bad to be poor. I shall go to the wall for bread and meat, if I neglect my business this year as well as last.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    I seemed intent on making it as difficult for myself as possible to pursue my “male” career goal. I not only procrastinated endlessly, submitting my medical school application at the very last minute, but continued to crave a conventional female role even as I moved ahead with my “male” pursuits.
    Margaret S. Mahler (1897–1985)
