"For what is Mysticism? It is not the attempt to draw near to God,
not by rites or ceremonies, but by inward disposition?

Heaven is neither a place nor a time."
-Florence Nightingale (1820-1910)
Unfortunate is he who cannot gain a few sincere friends during his life and more unfortunate is the one who has gained them and then lost them (through his deeds).
"Because man and woman are the complement of one another,
we need woman"s thought in national affairs to make
a safe and stable government."
-Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902)
