"One reason why men have superior judgement & more fortitude than women, is undoubtedly this: that they give a freer scope to the grand passions, & by more frequently going astray enlarge their minds."
Mary Wollstonecraft 1792
"Don't you think that the best thing a woman can do is to perform well her part in the role of wife & mother? My wife has presented me with eight beautiful children: is not this a better life-work than that of exercising the right of suffrage?"
"I have met few men in my life, worth repeating eight times."
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, in an encounter with a man from Nebraska, 1898
"Perchance the poor quality of the material whence woman comes is responsible for her inferiority."
Emma Goldman on the myth that woman was made out of Adam's rib. 1911
