This quote is from an 1867 Victorian newspaper column written by Mrs. "Jenny June":
"Even under the present imperfect conditions, home is the central attraction of every human heart, the inspiration of nearly all effort, the haven of all our hopes & desires. What would it be were women true to themselves, to their high destiny, to their great work? [What would it be] were the influences of home charged, as they might be, with the electric current of active love, faith, knowledge, strength, courage,and devotion to the interests they are bound to protect?"
