Quotes by Noel B. Gerson (?)

“According to her views,” her niece later recalled, “little girls were to be taught to move very gently, to speak softly and prettily, to say ‘yes, ma’am’ and ‘no, ma’am,’ never to tear their clothes, to sew, to knit at regular hours, to go to church on Sunday and make all the responses, and to come home and be catechised.” Harriet”

“was Balzac, half in jest, who mused, ‘What will become of the world when all women are like George Sand?”

“God and good angels guard us! surely this world, stored outwardly with shapes and influences of beauty and good, is peopled in its intellectual life by myriads of loving spirits that mould our thoughts to good, influence beneficially the course of events, and minister to the destiny of man. Whether the beloved dead make a portion of this company I dare not guess, but that such exist I feel — far off, when we are worldly, evil, selfish; drawing near and imparting joy and sympathy when we rise to noble thoughts and disinterested action. Such surely gather round one on such an evening, and make part of that atmosphere of love, so hushed, so soft, on which the soul reposes and is blest. ”
― Gerson Noel Bertram, Daughter of Earth and Water: A Biography of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
