    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    I want that head so sanitary and squared away that the Virgin Mary herself would be proud to go in there and take a dump.
    Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)

    Courage, then, for the end draws near! A few more years of persistent, faithful work and the women of the United States will be recognized as the legal equals of men.
