Do you not yet understand what...

Do you not yet understand what has made woman what she is? Then see what the sickly taste and perverted judgment of man now admires in woman.

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

Why should women not be a martyr for her cause?

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Away with that folly that her ...

Away with that folly that her rights would be detrimental to her character - that if she were recognized as the equal to a man she would cease to be a woman!

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

It is an interesting and demonstrable fact that all children are atheists and were not religion inculcated in their minds, they would remain so.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

For here lies the corner stone...

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

What rights have women? ... [t...

What rights have women? ... [they are] punished for breaking laws which they have no voice in making. All avenues to enterprise and honors are closed against them. If poor, they must drudge for a mere pittance if of the wealthy classes, they must be dressed dolls of fashion parlor puppets...

If they are unsuccessful in married life, who suffers more the bitter consequences of poverty than the wife? But if successful, she has not a dollar to call her own.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Ignorance is the evil - knowle...

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

And when your minister asks yo...

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

Much is said about the burdens...

Much is said about the burdens and responsibilities of married men. Responsibilities indeed there are, if they but felt them: but as to burdens what are they?

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

The main cause is a pernicious...

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

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

In case of separation, why sho...

In case of separation, why should the children be taken from the protecting care of the mother? Who has a better right to them than she? How much do fathers generally do toward bringing them up?

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

I know that some endeavor to t...

I know that some endeavor to throw the mantle of romance over the subject and treat woman like some ideal existence, not liable to the ills of life. Let those deal in fancy who have nothing better to deal in; we have to do with sober, sad realities, with stubborn facts.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Books and opinions, no matter ...

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

From the cradle to the grave s...

From the cradle to the grave she is subject to the power and control of man. Father, guardian, or husband, one conveys her like some piece of merchandise over to the other.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

No! on Human Rights and Freedom, on a subject that is as self-evident as that two and two make four, there is no need of any written authority.

Ernestine Rose 67 quotes

Emancipation from every kind of bondage is my principle. I go for recognition of human rights, without distinction of sect, party, sex, or color.

Slavery and freedom cannot exist together.
