We would have every arbitrary barrier thrown down. We would have every path laid open to woman as freely as to man.

Wine is earth's answer to the sun.
Interpretation
What this quote means
The quote suggests that wine is a gift from the earth, created in response to the warmth and light of the sun.
Margaret Fuller's quote, 'Wine is earth's answer to the sun,' beautifully captures the relationship between the natural world and the cultivation of wine. It implies that wine exists because of the nurturing qualities of the sun, which allows grapes to grow and thrive. This connection between the elements highlights the idea that earth produces something special and pleasurable as a response to the life-giving force of the sun.

All quotes βI fear I have not one good word to say this fair morning, though the sun shines so encouragingly on the distant hills and gentle river and the trees are in their festive hues. I am not festive, though contented. When obliged to give myself to the prose of life, as I am on this occasion of being established in a new home I like to do the thing, wholly and quite, - to weave my web for the day solely from the grey yarn.

It seems that it is madder never to abandon one's self than often to be infatuated; better to be wounded, a captive and a slave, than always to walk in armor.

For humans, the Arctic is a harshly inhospitable place, but the conditions there are precisely what polar bears require to survive - and thrive. 'Harsh' to us is 'home' for them. Take away the ice and snow, increase the temperature by even a little, and the realm that makes their lives possible literally melts away.
