I believe the preservation of the home in the future lies almost entirely in the hands of men.

I do not want to be the angel of any home: I want for myself what I want for other women, absolute equality. After that is secured, then men and women can take turns being angels.

Do not rely completely on any other human being, however dear. We meet all life's greatest tests alone.

I suggest that there is a splendid way out of the difficulty of marriage, and that is my way - stay out.

When I first came to the House of Commons and walked out into the lobby, men sprang to their feet. I asked them to sit down since I'd come to walk around. I didn't want them doing me favours.

Whatever is dirty, it is women's job to clean up, or drive some man to clean up, and that goes for everything from cellar to senate.

I want for myself what I want for other women, absolute equality.
