Results from Classic Quotes:

It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union.... Men, their rights and nothing more; women, their rights and nothing less.: Susan B. Anthony (1820 - 1906)
I ask no favors for my sex.... All I ask of our brethren is that they will take their feet from off our necks.: Sarah Moore Grimké (1792 - 1873)
Instead of getting hard ourselves and trying to compete, women should try and give their best qualities to men - bring them softness, teach them how to cry.: Joan Baez (1941 - ), Sexism Seen but not Heard, Los Angeles Times, 1974
Resolved, that the women of this nation in 1876, have greater cause for discontent, rebellion and revolution than the men of 1776.: Susan B. Anthony (1820 - 1906)
Men will often admit other women are oppressed but not you.: Sheila Rowbotham
You don't have to signal a social conscience by looking like a frump. Lace knickers won't hasten the holocaust, you can ban the bomb in a feather boa just as well as without, and a mild interest in the length of hemlines doesn't necessarily disqualify you from reading Das Kapital and agreeing with every word.: Princess Elizabeth Asquith Bibesco
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.: Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865), The Gettysburg Address, November 19, 1863
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.: Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865), The Gettysburg Address, November 19, 1863
It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.: Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865), The Gettysburg Address, November 19, 1863
It doesn't matter that Cathy was what I have called a monster. Perhaps we can't understand Cathy, but on the other hand we are capable of many things in all directions, of great virtues and great sins. And who in his mind has not probed the black water?: John Steinbeck (1902 - 1968), East of Eden
