The most disappointing feature of working for a cause is that so few people have a philosophy of life. We used to say, in the suffrage movement, that we could trust the woman who believed in suffrage, but we could never trust the woman who just wanted to vote.

The greatest threat to peace is the barrage of rightist propaganda portraying war as decent, honorable, and patriotic.

Go! Go! Go! It makes no difference where, just so you go! go! go! Remember, at the first opportunity, go!

Killing more people won't help matters.

I worked for suffrage for years, and got it. I've worked for peace for 55 years and haven't come close.

I want to stand by my country, but I cannot vote for war.

Men and women are like right and left hands: it doesn't make sense not to use both.
