[Asked if American women would ever win full suffrage:] Assuredly. I firmly believed at one time that I should live to see that day. I have never for one moment lost faith. It will come but I shall not see itit is inevitable.

I can not imagine a God ... made happy by my getting down on my knees and calling him 'great'.

... even if the right to vote brought to women no better work, no better pay, no better conditions in any way, she should have itfor her own self-respect and to compel man's respect for her.

Oh, if I could but live another century and see the fruition of all the work for women! There is so much yet to be done.

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

I will cut off this right arm of mine before I will ever work or demand the ballot for the Negro and not the woman.

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