Thou art blind to the danger of marrying a woman who feels and acts out the principle of equal rights.

I have not placed reading before praying because I regard it more important, but because, in order to pray aright, we must understand what we are praying for.

I trust the time is coming, when the occupation of an instructor to children will be deemed the most honorable of human employment.

Slavery always has, and always will produce insurrections wherever it exists, because it is a violation of the natural order of things.

The doctrine of blind obedience and unqualified submission to any human power, whether civil or ecclesiastical, is the doctrine of despotism.

Measure her rights and duties by the unerring standard of moral being… and then the truth will be self-evident, that whatever it is morally right for a man to do, it is morally right for a woman to do. I recognize no rights but human rights – I know nothing of men’s rights and women’s rights; for in Christ Jesus, there is neither male nor female.
