Victoria Woodhull
I believe in Spiritualism I advocate free love in the highest, purest sense, as the only cure for the damnation by which men corrupt God's most holy institution of sexual relations.
Victoria Woodhull
All talk of women's rights is moonshine. Women have every right. They have only to exercise them.
Victoria Woodhull
A reform in the system of criminal jurisprudence, by which the death penalty shall no longer be inflicted . . . and by which our so-called prisons shall be virtually transformed into vast reformatory workshops, from which the unfortunate may emerge to be useful members of society, instead of the alienated citizens they now are.
Victoria Woodhull
