If we help an educated mans daughter to go to Cambridge are we not forcing her to think not about education but about war? – not how she can learn, but how she can fight in order that she might win the same advantages as her brothers? – Virginia Woolf
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well. – Virginia Woolf
