I do not consider divorce an evil by any means. It is just as much a refuge for women married to brutal men as Canada was to the slaves of brutal masters.

The day will come when men will recognize woman as his peer, not only at the fireside, but in councils of the nation. Then, and not until then, will there be the perfect comradeship, the ideal union between the sexes that shall result in the highest development of the race.

I tell them I have worked 40 years to make the W.S. platform broad enough for Atheists and Agnostics to stand upon, and now if need be I will fight the next 40 to keep it Catholic enough to permit the straightest Orthodox religionist to speak or pray and count her beads upon. (on women's suffrage)

I do not assume that woman is better than man. I do assume that she has a different way of looking at things.

The religious persecution of the ages has been done under what was claimed to be the command of God.

I look for the day...when the only criterion of excellence or position shall be the ability and character of the individual; and this time will come.

Better lose me than lose a state.
