"I'm no angel." And, to say the truth, she certainly was not. - William Makepeace Thackeray

I never know whether to pity or congratulate a man on coming to his senses.

Mother is the name for God in the lips and hearts of little children.

And this I set down as a positive truth. A woman with fair opportunities, and without an absolute hump, may marry WHOM SHE LIKES. Only let us be thankful that the darlings are like the beasts of the fields, and don't know their own power. They would overcome us if they did.
