In this denial of the right to participate in government, not merely the degradation of woman and the perpetuation of a great injustice happens, but the maiming and repudiation of one-half of the moral and intellectual power of the government of the world.

In life you don't get everything you pay for, but you must pay for everything you get.

Once you learn to read, you will be forever free.

A man who will enslave his own blood, may not be safely relied on for magnamity.

He who is whipped oftenest, is whipped easiest.

No man can be truly free whose liberty is dependent upon the thought, feeling and action of others, and who has himself no means in his own hands for guarding, protecting, defending and maintaining that liberty

This Fourth of July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn.
