The best kind of a memorial would be a school where girls could be taught everything useful that would help them to earn an honorable livelihood; where they could learn to do anything they were capable of, just as boys can. I would like to have lived to see such a school as that in every great city of the United States.”

“A young child is no longer simply a child; he or she is a preschooler, poised at the starting gate in the race of life.”
