Stuart

Famous quotes containing the word stuart:

    Marriage is the only actual bondage known to our law. There remain no legal slaves, except the mistress of every house.
    —John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)

    The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error.
    —John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)

    No slave is a slave to the same lengths, and in so full a sense of the word, as a wife is.
    —John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)
