5 quotes by John Stuart Mill · clear filters

The subjection of women to men being a universal custom, any departure from it quite naturally appears unnatural.

But the time came when I awakened from this as from a dream.

At this my heart sank within me: the whole foundation on which my life was constructed fell down.

At first I hoped that the cloud would pass away of itself; but it did not.

The result was that I gradually, but completely, emerged from my habitual depression, and was never again subject to it.
