“Who should come to my lodge this morning but a true Homeric or Paphlagonian man,he had so suitable and poetic a name that I am sorry I cannot print it here,a Canadian, a woodchopper and post-maker, who can hole fifty posts in a day, who made his last supper on a woodchuck which his dog caught.”

“I never felt I could give up my life of freedom to become a mans housekeeper. When I was young, if a girl married poverty, she became a drudge; if she married wealth, she became a doll. Had I married at twenty-one, I would have been either a drudge or a doll for fifty-five years. Think of it!”
—Susan B. Anthony (18201906)
