It has always been thought perfectly womanly to be a scrub- woman in the Legislature and to take care of the spittoons that is entirely within the charmed circle of woman's sphere but for women to occupy any of those official seats would be degrading.

Susan B. Anthony
... while one-half of the people of the United States are robbed of their inherent right of personal representation in this freestcountry on the face of the globe, it is idle for us to expect that the men who thus rob women will not rob each other as individuals, corporations and Government.
Susan B. Anthony
If a man's public record be a clear one, if he has kept his pledges before the world, I do not inquire what his private life may have been.
Susan B. Anthony
The fact is, women are in chains, and their servitude is all the more debasing because they do not realize it.
Susan B. Anthony
We ask justice, we ask equality, we ask that all the civil and political rights that belong to citizens of the United States, be guaranteed to us and our daughters forever.
