George Eliot
“Our deeds still travel with us from afar/And what we have been makes us what we are.”
George Eliot, Middlemarch

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, We Should All Be Feminists

George Eliot
“But the effect of her being on those around her was incalculably diffusive: for the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.”
George Eliot, Middlemarch

George Eliot

George Eliot, Middlemarch

G.K. Chesterton
“It is true that I am of an older fashion; much that I love has been destroyed or sent into exile.”
G.K. Chesterton
