[Herland by Charlotte Perkins Stetson Gilman]@TWC D-Link bookHerland CHAPTER 8 16/24
When I say GREAT, I mean great--big, all through.
If I had known more of those women, as intimately, I should not have found her so unique; but even among them she was noble.
Her mother was an Over Mother--and her grandmother, too, I heard later. So she told me more and more of her beautiful land; and I told her as much, yes, more than I wanted to, about mine; and we became inseparable. Then this deeper recognition came and grew.
I felt my own soul rise and lift its wings, as it were.
Life got bigger.
