« | It occurred to me to engage Mrs. Robinson, ... [my wife's] nurse, to go into one of the poorest districts of Liverpool and try, in nursing the poor, to relieve suffering and to teach them the rules of health and comfort. I furnished her with the medical comforts necessary, but after a month's experience she came to me crying and said that she could not bear any longer the misery she saw. I asked her to continue the work until the end of her engagement with me (which was three months), and at the end of that time, she came back saying that the amount of misery she could relieve was so satisfactory that nothing would induce her to go back to private nursing, if I were willing to continue the work | » |

« | Florence Nightingale, the famous nurse of the Crimean war and the only woman who ever received the Order of Merit, died yesterday afternoon at her London home. Although she had been an invalid for a long time, rarely leaving her room, where she passed the time in a half-recumbent position and was under the constant care of a physician, her death was somewhat unexpected. A week ago she was quite sick, but then improved and on Friday was cheerful. During that night alarming symptoms developed and she gradually sank until 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon, when the end came. | » |

« | But a woman cannot live in the light of intellect. Society forbids it. Those conventional frivolities, which are called her ‘duties', forbid it … What are these duties (or bad habits)? Answering a multitude of letters which lead to nothing, from her so-called friends; keeping herself up to the level of the world that she may furnish her quota of amusement at the breakfast-table; driving out her company in the carriage. | » |
