Halaman 203 - ... as I lived quite on the other side of the island, he would never have been so simple to leave a mark in a place where it was ten thousand to one whether I should ever see it or not, and in the sand too, which the first surge of the sea, upon a high wind, would have defaced entirely.
Halaman 23 - That all the world are mistaken in their practice about women.

Halaman 51 - Had King James sent all the Puritans in England away to the West Indies, we had been a national, unmixed Church ; the Church of England had been kept undivided and entire. To requite the lenity of the father, they take up arms against the son : conquer, pursue, take, imprison, and at last put to death the anointed of God, and destroy the very being and nature of government, setting up a sordid impostor, who had neither title to govern nor understanding to manage, but supplied that want with power,...
Halaman 18 - I would have no guards, no eyes, no spies set over the ladies, but shall expect them to be tried by the principles of honour and strict virtue. And if I am asked why, I must ask pardon of my own sex for giving this reason for it...
Halaman 20 - They should be brought to read books, and especially history, and so to read as to make them understand the world, and be able to know and judge of things when they hear of them. To such whose genius would lead them to it I would deny no sort of learning ; but the chief thing in general is to cultivate the understandings of the sex, that they may be capable of all sorts of conversation ; that, their parts and judgments being improved, they may be as profitable in their conversation as they are pleasant.
