We may yet live to see the day when women will be no longer news! And it cannot come too soon. I want to be a peaceful, happy, normal human being, pursuing my unimpeded way through life, never having to stop to explain, defend or apologize for my sex.

Every season of life has its compensations.

I saw what could be done with words, for I had a vision of a new world as I talked.

I am one of those irritating people, who hang on to the door-knob after they say good-bye, and will neither come back nor go, always remembering something else which must be said.

In regard to tenacity of life, no old yellow cat has anything on a prejudice. You may kill it with your own hands, bury it deep, and sit on the grave, and behold! the next day it will walk in at the back door, purring.

Have we not the brains to think? Hands to work? Hearts to feel? And lives to live?

Children are great idealists, until the stupidity of their elders puts out the fires of the aspirations.
