“Women bear Crosses better than Men do, but bear Surprizes – worse.”
Letter to Sir James Fellowes, November 6, 1817; The Piozzi Letters: Correspondence of Hester Lynch Piozzi, 1784-1821 (2002) vol. 6, p. 130.
In Defense of Emma Goldman and the Right of Expropriation (1893)
Context: Humanity can not be made equal by declarations on paper. Unless the material conditions for equality exist, it is worse than mockery to pronounce men equal. And unless there is equality (and by equality I mean equal chances for every one to make the most of himself) unless, I say, these equal chances exist, freedom, either of thought, speech, or action, is equally a mockery.
“Bear up, old heart! You've borne worse, far worse…”
XX. 18 (tr. Robert Fagles).
: Bear up, my soul, a little longer yet;
A little longer to thy purpose cling!
