The politician is the creature of the public sentiment -- never goes ahead of it because he depends on it . . .

The road before us is shorter than the road behind.

In education, in marriage, in religion, in everything, disappointment is the lot of women. It shall be the business of my life to deepen this disappointment in every woman's heart until she bows down to it no longer.

The great majority of women are more intelligent, better educated, and far more moral than multitudes of men whose right to vote no man questions.

Our victory is sure to come, and I can endure anything but recreancy to principle.

I expect some new phases of life this summer, and shall try to get the honey from each moment.

We ask only for justice and equal rights-the right to vote, the right to our own earnings, equality before the law.
