Surely the immutable laws of ...

Surely the immutable laws of the universe can teach more impressive and exalted lessons than the holy books of all the religions on earth.

Come, come, my conservative friend, wipe the dew off your spectacles, and see that the world is moving.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

We found nothing grand in the history of the Jews nor in the morals inculcated in the Pentateuch. I know of no other books that so fully teach the subjection and degradation of woman.

Woman's discontent increases in exact proportion to her development.

I am always busy, which is perhaps the chief reason why I am always well.

The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to women is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

We are the only class in hist...

We are the only class in history that has been left to fight its battles alone, unaided by the ruling powers. White labor and the freed black men had their champions, but where are ours?

Self-development is a higher duty than self-sacrifice.

The prolonged slavery of women is the darkest page in human history.

Words cannot describe the indignation a proud woman feels for her sex in disfranchisement.

The moment we begin to fear t...

The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

The strongest reason for givi...

The strongest reason for giving woman all the opportunities for higher education, for the full development of her faculties, her forces of mind and body... is the solitude and personal responsibility of her own individual life.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

The greatest block today in the way of woman's emancipation is the church, the canon law, the Bible and the priesthood.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

To live for a principle, for ...

To live for a principle, for the triumph of some reform by which all mankind are to be lifted up to be wedded to an idea may be, after all, the holiest and happiest of marriages.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men and women are created equal.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

Every man who is not for us i...

Every man who is not for us in this prolonged struggle for liberty is responsible for the present degradation of the mothers of the race. It is pitiful to see how few men ever have made our cause their own, but while leaving us to fight our battle alone, they have been unsparing in their criticism of every failure. Of all the battles for liberty in the long past, woman only has been left to fight her own, without help and with all the powers of earth and heaven, human and divine, arrayed against her.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

Where no individual in a comm...

Where no individual in a community is denied his rights, the mass are the more perfectly protected in theirs; for whenever any class is subject to fraud or injustice, it shows that the spirit of tyranny is at work, and no one can tell where or how or when the infection will spread.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

Nothing adds such dignity to ...

Nothing adds such dignity to character as the recognition of one's self- sovereignty.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

How can any woman believe tha...

How can any woman believe that a loving and merciful God would, in one breath, command Eve to multiply and replenish the earth, and in the next, pronounce a curse upon her maternity? I do not believe that God inspired the Mosaic code, or gave out the laws about women which he is accused of doing.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton 239 quotes

Whatever the theories may be ...

Whatever the theories may be of woman's dependence on man, in the supreme moments of her life he can not bear her burdens.
