It is extremely unfortunate that an editor's own life and practice should be notoriously at variance with his written principles.
Victoria Woodhull
It must always be remembered that you can never do right until you are first free to do wrong since the doing of a thing under compulsion is evidence neither of good nor bad intent and if under compulsion, who shall decide what would be the substituted rule of action under full freedom?
Victoria Woodhull
I do not assume to speak for anyone. I know I speak in direct opposition to the wishes of many by whom I am surrounded.
Victoria Woodhull
