Ah, I fancy it
is just the same with most of what you call your
''emancipation.'' You have read yourself into a number of
new ideas and opinions. You have got a sort of smattering of

been held impregnable and unassailable. But all this has
only been a matter of intellect, Miss West -- superficial
acquisition. It has not passed into your blood.
-- Henrik Ibsen

bored when they are at large and at work; but somehow I am
still more blackly bored when they are shut up in Holloway
and we are deprived of them.
-- Henry James
1843-1916, American Author
