 "Women want the ways 
To praise their deeds, but men want deeds to praise."

     "I do not mean merely to admire woman as the most beautiful objects of creation, or love them as the sole source of happiness, but I reverence them as the redeeming glories of humanity, the sanctuaries of the virtues, the pledges and ante past [[?]] of those perfect qualities of the head and heart; combined with attractive external charm which, by their union, almost exalt them into the angelic character."

Bigotry

     "She has no head, and cannot think-no heart, and cannot feel!-When she moves, it is in wrath- when she pauses, it is amid ruin; her prayers are curses-her God is a demon-her communion is death-her vengeance is eternity.  "Her decalogue is written in the blood of her victims-and if she stops a moment in her infernal flight, it is upon some kindred rock to whet her vulture fang--and replume her wing for more sanguinary desolation.-"
Phillips.
