    “Is it impossible not to wonder why a movement which professes concern for the fate of all women has dealt so unkindly, contemptuously, so destructively, with so significant a portion of its sisterhood.

    “A cure by regression is homeopathic, like healing the damage done by ministers and ignorance with stupidity and Jesuits.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
