Maston. “That there have been some very remarkable women in mathematics, especially in Russia, I fully and willingly agree with you. But, with her cerebral conformation, she cannot become an Archimedes, much less a Newton.” “Oh, Mr. Maston, allow me to protest in the name of my sex.” “A sex, Mrs. Scorbitt, much too charming to give itself up to the higher studies.” “Well then, according to your opinion, no woman seeing an apple fall could have discovered the law of universal gravitation, so that it would have made her the most illustrious scientific person of the seventeenth century?” “In seeing an apple fall, Mrs.… Read More
