You may talk about Free Love, if you please, but we are to have the right to vote. Today we are fined, imprisoned, and hanged, without a jury trial by our peers. You shall not cheat us by getting us off to talk about something else. When we get the suffrage, then you may taunt us with anything you please, and we will then talk about it as long as you please.

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

The idea of equal rights was in the air.

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

If, while I hear the wild shriek of the slave mother robbed of her little ones, I do not open my mouth, am I not guilty?

A wife should no more take her husband's name than he should hers. My name is my identity and must not be lost

I expect to plead not for the slave only, but for suffering humanity everywhere. Especially do I mean to labor for the elevation of my sex.
