Behind his destiny woman must annihilate herself, must be only his complement. A woman dedicates herself to the vocation of her husband; she fills up and performs the subordinate parts in it. But if she has any destiny, any vocation of her own, she must renounce it, in nine cases out of ten.“ — Florence Nightingale „Look, working nine, ten years old at the farm, I was not harmed at all.

[...] But I want to say that I, my older brother, a sister of mine, a little younger, at that age, eight, nine, ten, twelve years, worked on the farm.“ — Jair Bolsonaro „Last year nothing happenedThe year before nothing happenedAnd the year before that nothinghappened.“ — Osamu Dazai „A mother takes twenty years to make a man of her boy, and another woman makes a fool of him in twenty minutes.“ — Robert Frost
