Wife Susan

Famous quotes containing the words wife and/or susan:

    Gentlemen, no one objects to the husband being the head of the wife as Christ was the head of the church—to crucify himself; what we object to is his crucifying his wife.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

    We enunciate a grand principle, then we are timid and begin restricting its application. We are a nation of infidels to principle.
