Those of you who have the talent to do honor to poor womanhood, have all given yourself over to baby-making. . .

You would better educate ten women into the practice of liberal principles than to organize a thousand on a platform of intolerance and bigotry.

Of all the old prejudices that cling to the hem of the woman's garments and persistently impede her progress, none holds faster than this. The idea that she owes service to a man instead of to herself, and that it is her highest duty to aid his development rather than her own, will be the last to die.

I don't want to die as long as I can work; the minute I can not, I want to go.

I never felt I could give up my life of freedom to become a man's housekeeper. When I was young, if a girl married poverty, she became a drudge; if she married wealth, she became a doll. Had I married at twenty-one, I would have been either a drudge or a doll for fifty-five years. Think of it!
