The worst enemy women have is in the pulpit.

Modern invention has banished the spinning wheel, and the same law of progress makes the woman of today a different woman from her grandmother.

Gentlemen ... Do you not see that so long as society says a woman is incompetent to be a lawyer, minister or doctor, but has ample ability to be a teacher, that every man of you who chooses this profession tacitly acknowledges that he has no more brains than a woman?

Sentiment never was and never can be a guarantee for justice.

The older I get, the greater power I seem to have to help the world; I am like a snowball - the further I am rolled the more I gain.

I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires.

There have been others also just as true and devoted to the cause--I wish I could name every one--but with such women consecratingtheir lives, failure is impossible!
