Nothing can be more absurd than the practice that prevails in our country of men and women not following the same pursuits with all their strengths and with one mind, for thus, the state instead of being whole is reduced to half. – Plato
There is nothing on earth so easy as to forget, if a person chooses to set about it. Im sure I have as much forgot your poor, dear uncle, as if he had never existed; and I thought it my duty to do so. – Richard Brinsley Sheridan
