There is no force equal to a woman determined to rise

The kind of sermon which is preached in most colored churches is not today attractive to even fairly intelligent men.

The world is shrinking together; it is finding itself neighbor to itself in strange, almost magic degree.

Children learn more from what you are than what you teach.

The Negro cannot stand the present reactionary tendencies and unreasoning drawing of the color line indefinitely without discouragement and retrogression. And the condition of the Negro is ever the cause for further discrimination.

To stimulate wildly weak and untrained minds is to play with mighty fires.

Daily the Negro is coming more and more to look upon law and justice, not as protecting safeguards, but as sources of humiliation and oppression. The laws are made by men who have little interest in him; they are executed by men who have absolutely no motive for treating the black people with courtesy or consideration; and, finally, the accused law-breaker is tried, not by his peers, but too often by men who would rather punish ten innocent Negroes than let one guilty one escape.
