Famous quotes containing the words slave and/or women:
“To give liberty to a slave before he understands its value is, perhaps, rather to impose a penalty than to bestow a blessing ...”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)
“A completely indifferent attitude toward clothes in women seems to me to be an admission of inferiority, of perverseness, or of a lack of realization of her place in the world as a woman. Or—what is even more hopeless and pathetic—it’s an admission that she has given up, that she is beaten, and refuses longer to stand up to the world.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
