[…] If Athena was wise, she was a fool to compete, for who cares whether a learned lady is blonde or brune? One of the things every woman knows is that if she has charm it matters little what else she has, and if she hasn’t, nothing else will help.",

[…] In The Broken Wedding Ring of Bertha M. Clay, the elder sister, Leah, is a brune, […] This leaves us free to infer that if she doesn’t show it so often as the brune, it is merely because she doesn’t have to. She has the delicate air by gift of nature, and if because of it we endow her not only with all worldly goods but all the graces of heaven, we do so at our own risk, not by the mandate of God.
