To put a woman on the ticket would challenge the loyalty of women everywhere to their sex, because it would be made to seem that the defeat of the ticket meant the defeat for a hundred years of women's chance to be truly equal with men in politics.
Clare Boothe Luce
If old age means a crown of thorns, the trick is to wear it jauntily.
Clare Boothe Luce
