Because I am a woman, I must make unusual efforts to succeed. If I fail, no one will say, 'She doesn't have what it takes.' They will say, 'Women don't have what it takes.'
Clare Booth Luce
Whoever is out of patience is out of possession of his soul. Men must not turn into bees, and kill themselves in stinging others.
Sir Francis Bacon
Remember when life's path is steep to keep your mind even.
