‘It is not to be wondered at, ma'am,—all this is the natural consequence of teaching girls to read. Had I a thousand daughters, by Heaven! I'd as soon have them taught the black art as their alphabet!’ ‘Madam, a circulating library in a town is as an evergreen tree of diabolical knowledge!’ Sir Anthony Absolute in Richard Brinsley Sheridan’s The Rivals (1775).

‘the soft music of those encouraging accents had already ceased to vibrate on human ears, before these scrambling pot-hooks had begun their operation of converting into Elegies, Odes, Plays, Songs, Stories, Farces,—nay, Tragedies and Epic Poems, every scrap of white paper that could be seized upon without question or notice.’ (Memoirs of Dr. Burney)

‘From the time, however, that she attained her fifteenth year, she considered it her duty to combat this writing passion as illaudable, because fruitless. Seizing, therefore, an opportunity, when Dr. Burney was at Chesington, and the then Mrs. Burney, her mother-in-law, was in Norfolk, she made over to a bonfire, in a paved play-court, her whole stock of prose goods and chattels; with the sincere intention to extinguish for ever in their ashes her scribbling propensity.’ (Memoirs of Dr. Burney)

[…] a species of writing […] never mentioned, even by its supporter, but with a look that fears contempt. (Preface to The Wanderer)
