Surpassed Quotes

Who of you appreciate the galling humiliation, the refinements of degradation, to which women... Are subject, in this the last half of the nineteenth century?

It was invented in a world without automobiles, and for speed and range it was quickly surpassed by motorcycles and all kinds of powered scooters. But there is nothing quaint about bicycles. They outsell cars Picture Quote #1
