    Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)

    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    Let parents then bequeath to their children not riches, but the spirit of reverence.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

    The sun his hand uncloses like a statue,
    Irrevocably: thereby such light is freed
    That all the dingy hospital of snow
    Dies back to ditches.
