Amazing insight or just logical progression.....?

Amazing isn't it? Some people are just born in the wrong era....He was way ahead everybody....

The word visionary springs to mind! ( The bottom part of the article about women confirms this )

[Cleoriff]

I quite liked his view of women....all those years ago

The female mind has demonstrated a capacity for all the mental acquirements and achievements of men, and as generations ensue that capacity will be expanded; the average woman will be as well educated as the average man, and then better educated, for the dormant faculties of her brain will be stimulated to an activity that will be all the more intense and powerful because of centuries of repose. Woman will ignore precedent and startle civilization with their progress.

You rock Nikola
