I would rather be a rebel than a slave.

...the Government must not think that they can stop this agitation. It will go on...We are here not because we are law-breakers; we are here in out efforts to become law-makers.

There is something that governments care for more than human life, and that is the security of property, and so it is through property that we shall strike the enemy.... Those of you who can break windows--break them. Those of you who can still further attack the secret idol of property, so as to make the Government realize that property is as greatly endangered by women's suffrage as it was by the Chartists of old--do so. And my last word is to the Government: I incite this meeting to rebellion!

Men make the moral code and they expect women to accept it.

I have never advised the destruction of life, but of property, yes.

If men will not do us justice, they shall do us violence.

The whole argument with the anti-suffragists, or even the critical suffragist man, is this: that you can govern human beings without their consent.
