Florence Nightingale "Women never have a half-hour in all their lives (excepting before or after anybody is up the house) That they can call their own, without fear of offending or of hurting someone. Why do people sit up so late, or, more rarely, get up so early? Not because the day is not long enough, but because they have no time in the day to themselves." - 1852
