The brain is not, and cannot be, the sole or complete organ of thought and feeling.

Nature is just enough; but men and women must comprehend and accept her suggestions.

Women's thoughts are impelled by their feelings. Hence the sharp-sightedness, the direct instinct, the quick perceptions; hence also their warmer prejudices and more unbalanced judgments. In this the child is like the woman.

Any positive thinker is compelled to see everything in the light of his own convictions.

The sexes in each species of being... are always true equivalents - equals but not identical.

If woman's sole responsibility is of the domestic type, one class will be crushed by it, and the other throw it off as a badge of poverty. The poor man's motto, 'Woman's work is never done,' leads inevitably to its antithesis - ladies' work is never begun.

Slavery is malignantly aristocratic.
