"None of your puny breed of modern femininity, but a remnant left over from the heroic ages, -- a primitive woman, grand and vast of spirit, capable of true and steadfast wifehood.

Porter that is now considered a classic of children's literature, with the title character's name becoming a popular term for someone with the same optimistic outlook. |
