What we give to the poor, we lend to the Lord.

Sojourner Truth 49 quotes

Where there is so much racket...

Where there is so much racket there must be something out of kilter.

Sojourner Truth 49 quotes

Let ... individuals make the ...

Let ... individuals make the most of what God has given them, have their neighbors do the same, and then do all they can to serve each other. There is no use in one man, or one nation, to try to do or be everything. It is a good thing to be dependent on each other for something, it makes us civil and peaceable.

Sojourner Truth 49 quotes

If the first woman God ever m...

If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again! And now they is asking to do it, the men better let them.

Oh no, honey, I can’t read little things like letters. I read big things like men.

And ain't I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?

It is hard for the old slave holding spirit to die. But die it must.

I feel safe in the midst of my enemies, for the truth is all powerful and will prevail.

Sojourner Truth 49 quotes

I don't read such small stuff as letters, I read men and nations. I can see through a millstone, though I can't see through a spelling-book. What a narrow idea a reading qualification is for a voter!

I have done a great deal of work, as much as a man, but did not get so much pay. I used to work in the field and bind grain, keeping up with the cradler; but men doing no more, got twice as much pay.... We do as much, we eat as much, we want as much.

It is the mind that makes the ...

It is the mind that makes the body.

I am above eighty years old; it is about time for me to be going. I have been forty years a slave and forty years free and would be here forty years more to have equal rights for all.

Sojourner Truth 49 quotes

Then that little man in black ...

Then that little man in black there, he says women can't have as much rights as men, 'cause Christ wasn't a woman! Where did your Christ come from? Where did Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do with Him.

Sojourner Truth 49 quotes

If women want any rights more ...

If women want any rights more than they's got, why don't they just take them, and not be talking about it.

Sojourner Truth 49 quotes

Because of them I can now live...

Because of them I can now live the dream. I am the seed of the free, and I know it. I intend to bear great fruit.

If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again! And now they is asking to do it, the men better let them.

And ain't I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me! And ain't I a woman? I could work as much and eat as much as a man - when I could get it - and bear the lash as well! And ain't I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?

Religion without humanity is very poor human stuff.

Sojourner Truth 49 quotes

There is a great stir about colored men getting their rights, but not a word about the colored women; and if colored men get their rights, and not colored women theirs, you see the colored
men will be masters over the women, and it will be just as bad as it was before. So I am for keeping the thing going while things are stirring; because if we wait till it is still, it will
take a great while to get it going again.
