I was a woman before I was an abolitionist. I must speak for the women.

But I do believe that a woman's truest place is in a home, with a husband and with children, and with large freedom, pecuniary freedom, personal freedom, and the right to vote

It is very little to me to have the right to vote, to own property, etc., if I may not keep my body, and its uses, in my absolute right

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.

The widening of woman's sphere is to improve her lot. Let us do it, and if the world scoff, let it scoff if it sneer, let it sneer.

The road before us is shorter than the road behind.

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