Sayfa 40 - Give me the money that has been spent in war and I will purchase every foot of land upon the globe. I will clothe every man, woman and child in an attire of which kings and queens would be proud. I will build a school house on every hillside and in every valley over the whole earth. I will build an academy in every town and endow it, a college in every State and fill it with able professors.
Sayfa 112 - Let me have men about me that are fat ; Sleek-headed men, and such as sleep o' nights. Yond' Cassius has a lean and hungry look ; He thinks too much : such men are dangerous.
Sayfa 67 - Women (1558) by maintaining that to "promote a woman to bear rule, superiority, dominion or empire above any realm, nation, or city, is repugnant to nature, contumely to God, a thing most contrarious to his revealed will and approved ordinance, and finally it is the subversion of good order, of all equity and justice
Sayfa 67 - ... whose talents have raised him to an estimation in society perhaps superior to his own. " Thus it is with the men, and with the fairer sex assuredly it is not different. No woman, conscious of attraction, was ever a republican in her heart. Beauty is essentially despotic — it uniformly asserts its power, and never yet consented to a surrender of privilege.

Sayfa 62 - There is no doubt that the proper study of mankind is WOMAN ; and Mr Pope was wrong ; for the endless variety of character among the sex is of itself a mine, endless and inexhaustible ; but to study them in their domestic capacity, is the sweetest of allMan may for wealth or glory roam, But woman must be blest at home. To this her efforts ever tend, "fit her great object and her end.
Sayfa 53 - Tis an assassin at the midnight hour ; Urged on by envy, that, with footstep soft, Steals on the slumber of sweet innocence, And, with the dark drawn dagger of the mind, Drinks deep the crimson current of the heart. It is a worm that crawls on beauty's cheek, Like the vile viper in a vale of flowers, And riots in ambrosial blossoms there. It is a coward in a coat of mail, That wages war against the brave and wise, And like the long, lean lizard that will mar The lion's sleep, it wounds the noblest...
Sayfa 8 - According to Vattel, the Law of Nations, in its origin, is nothing but the law of nature applied to nations. Having laid down this axiom, he qualifies it in the same manner, and almost in the identical terms of Wolf, by stating that the nature of the subject to which it is applied being different, the law which regulates the conduct of individuals must necessarily be modified in its application to the collective...
