“Now, the ladies being together under these circumstances, it was extremely natural that the discourse should turn upon the propensity of mankind to tyrannize over the weaker sex, and the duty that developed upon the weaker sex to resist that tyranny and assert their rights and dignity. It was natural for four reasons: firstly, because Mrs Quilp being a young woman and notoriously under the dominion of her husband ought to be excited to rebel; secondly, because Mrs Quilp’s parent was known to be laudably shrewish in her disposition and inclined to resist male authority; thirdly, because each visitor wished to show for herself how superior she was in this respect to the generality of her sex; and fourthly, because the company being accustomed to scandalise each other in pairs, were deprived of their usual subject of conversation now that they were all assembled in close friendship, and had consequently no better employment than to attack the common enemy.”

“La llanura es bella y terrible a la vez; en ella caben, holgadamente, hermosa vida y muerte atroz. Ésta acecha por todas partes; pero allí nadie la teme. El llano asusta; pero el miedo del llano no enfría el corazón: es caliente como el gran viento de su soleada inmensidad, como fiebre de sus esteros. El llano enloquece y la locura del hombre de la tierra ancha y libre es ser llanero siempre.”
