LUSCOMB, FLORENCE : The tragedy in the lives of most of us is that we go through life walking down a high-walled land with people of our own kind, the same economic situation, the same national background and education and religious outlook. And beyond those walls, all humanity lies, unknown and unseen, and untouched by our restricted and impoverished lives. (Florence Luscomb, U.S. women's suffrage activist and architect who was one of the first ten women to graduate from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with her degrees in architecture, 1887-1985)
