'Hannah Moore's Strictures on Female Education,'

Little events and trivial operations engross her whole soul;
while a woman of sense, having provided for their probable recurrence, guards
against the inconveniences, without being disconcerted by the casual
obstructions which they offer to her general scheme.

A general capacity for knowledge and the cultivation of the understanding at
large, will always put a woman into the best state for directing her pursuits into
those particular channels which her destination in life may afterwards require. But
she should be carefully instructed that her talents are only a means to a still
higher attainment, and that, she is not to rest in them as an end; that merely to
exercise them as instruments for the acquisition of fame and the promotion of
pleasure, is subversive of her delicacy as a woman, and contrary to the spirit of a
Christian.

Study, therefore, is to be considered as the means of strengthening the mind,
and of fitting it for higher duties, just as exercise is to be considered as an
instrument for strengthening the body for the same purpose

Womans way to be more economical-'Hannah Moore's Strictures on Female Education,'

Economy such as a woman of fortune is called on to
practise, is not merely the petty detail of small daily expenses, the shabby
curtailments and stinted parsimony of a little mind operating on little concerns;
but it is the exercise of a sound judgment exerted in the comprehensive outline of
order, of arrangement, of distribution ; of regulations by which alone well-
governed societies, great and small, subsist. She who has the best-regulated
mind will, other things being equal, have the best-regulated family. As in the
superintendence of the universe, wisdom is seen in its effects; and as in the
visible works of Providence, that which goes on with such beautiful regularity is
the result, not of chance, but of design; so, that management which seems the
most easy, is commonly the consequence of the best-concerted plan ; and a
well-concerted plan is seldom the offspring of an ordinary mind. A sound
economy is a sound understanding brought into action ; it is calculation realized;
it is the doctrine of proportion reduced to practice; it is foreseeing consequences,
and guarding against them ; it is expecting contingencies, and being prepared for
them

'Hannah Moore's Strictures on Female Education,'

And let every Christian remember, that
there is no other way of entering truly into the spirit of that divine prayer, which
petitions that the name of God may be “hallowed," that "his kingdom (of grace)
may come," and that "his will may be done on earth as it is in heaven," than by
each individual contributing according to his measure to accomplish the work for
which he prays; for to pray that these great objects may be promoted, without
contributing to their promotion by our exertions, our money, and our influence, is
a palpable inconsistency.
