there is ten times more in the world than would maintain all in yet unknown luxury. Yet how much misery there is in our midst; not because there is not enough, but owing to the misdirection of it.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Silence is consent. And silen...

Silence is consent. And silence where life and liberty is at stake, where by a timely protest we could stay the destoyer's hand, and do not do so, is as criminal as giving actual aid to the oppressor, for it answers his purpose.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Whatever good you would do ou...

Whatever good you would do out of fear of punishment, or hope of reward hereafter, the Atheist would do simply because it is good; and being so, he would receive the far surer and more certain reward, springing from well-doing, which would constitute his pleasure, and promote his happiness.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Do you tell me that the Bible...

Do you tell me that the Bible is against our rights? Then I say that our claims do not rest upon a book written no one knows when, or by whom. Do you tell me what Paul or Peter says on the subject? Then again I reply that our claims do not rest on the opinions of any one, not even on those of Paul and Peter, . . . Books and opinions, no matter from whom they came, if they are in opposition to human rights, are nothing but dead letters.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

For here lies the corner ston...

For here lies the corner stone of all the injustices done woman, the wrong idea from which all other wrongs proceed. She is not acknowledged as mistress of herself. For her cradle to her grave she is another's. We do indeed need and demand the other rights of which I have spoken, but let us first obtain OURSELVES.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

And when your minister asks y...

And when your minister asks you for money for missionary purposes, tell him there are higher, and holier, and nobler missions to be performed at home. When he asks for colleges to educate ministers, tell him you must educate woman, that she may do away with the necessity of ministers, so that they may be able to go to some useful employment.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

even the best of constitution...

even the best of constitutions need sometimes to be amended and improved, for after all there is but one constitution which is infallible, but one constitution that ought to be held sacred, and that is the human constitution.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Ignorance is the evil - knowl...

Ignorance is the evil - knowledge will be the remedy. Knowledge not of what sort of beings we shall be hereafter, or what is beyond the skies, but a knowledge pertaining to terra firma, and we may have all the power, goodness and love that we have been taught belongs to God himself.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

I suppose you all grant that ...

I suppose you all grant that woman is a human being. If she has a right to life she has a right to earn a support for that life. If a human being, she has a right to have her powers and faculties as a human being developed. If developed, she has a right to exercise them.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

What is life without liberty;...

What is life without liberty; and what is liberty without equality of rights?

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

It is high time to compel man...

It is high time to compel man by the might of right to give woman her political, legal and social rights. She will find her own sphere in accordance with her capacities, powers and tastes; and yet she will be woman still.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Slavery and freedom cannot exist together.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

If any difference should be m...

If any difference should be made by law between husband and wife, reason, justice and humanity, if their voices were heard, would dictate that it should be in her favor.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

The few bright meteors in man...

The few bright meteors in man's intellectual horizon could well be matched by women, were she allowed to occupy the same elevated position.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Blind submission in women is ...

Blind submission in women is considered a virtue, while submission to wrong is itself wrong, and resistance to wrong is virtue alike in women as in man.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

The main cause is a perniciou...

The main cause is a pernicious falsehood propagated against her being, namely that she is inferior by her nature. Inferior in what? What has man ever done that woman, under the same advantages could not do?

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

The mass of the people commen...

The mass of the people commence life with no other capital than the union of head, hearts and hands. To the benefit of this best of capital the wife has no right.

I asked God if it was a sin and He didn't say anything.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

All that I can tell you is, that I used my humble powers to the uttermost, and raised my voice in behalf of Human Rights in general, and the elevation and Rights of Woman in particular, nearly all my life.

If God is pleased in making you sick and unhappy, I hate God.
