    “I spoke at a woman’s club in Philadelphia yesterday and a young lady said to me afterwards, “Well, that sounds very nice, but don’t you think it is better to be the power behind the throne?” I answered that I had not had much experience with thrones, but a woman who has been on a throne, and who is now behind it, seems to prefer to be on the throne.”
    —Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)

    “I would to God thou and I knew where a commodity of good names were to be bought.”
