Страница 12516 - The woman's duty, as a member of the commonwealth, is to assist in the ordering, in the comforting, and in the beautiful adornment of the state. When the man is at his own gate, defending it, if need be, against insult and spoil, that also, not in a less, but in a more devoted measure, he is to be at the gate of his country, leaving his home, if need be, even to the spoiler, to do his more incumbent work there.
Страница 12521 - The whole system of railroad travelling is addressed to people who, being in a -hurry, are therefore, for the time being, miserable.
