There would be more sense in insisting on man's limitations because he cannot be a mother than on a woman's because she can be.

The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls.

The heyday of woman's life is the shady side of fifty.

To make laws that man cannot, and will not obey, serves to bring all law into contempt.

The best protection any woman can have... is courage.

We found nothing grand in the history of the Jews nor in the morals inculcated in the Pentateuch. I know of no other books that so fully teach the subjection and degradation of woman.

The prolonged slavery of women is the darkest page in human history.

To have drunkards, idiots, horse-racing, rumselling rowdies, ignorant foreigners, and silly boys fully recognized, while we ourselves are thrust out from all the rights that belong to citizens, it is too grossly insulting to... be longer quietly submitted to.

Words cannot describe the indignation a proud woman feels for her sex in disfranchisement.
