Famous quotes by anna howard shaw:

    I care nothing for all the political parties in the world except as they stand for justice.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)

    A gentleman opposed to their enfranchisement once said to me, ‘Women have never produced anything of any value to the world.’ I told him the chief product of the women had been the men, and left it to him to decide whether the product was of any value.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
