“It is in vain that we would circumscribe the power of one half of our race, and that half by far the most important and influential.

Let women stand where they may in the scale of improvement, their position decides that of the race.”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)

“Sabbath. A weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh.”
