Why is a woman to be treated differently? Woman suffrage will succeed, despite this miserable guerilla opposition.

Rude contact with facts chased my visions and dreams quickly away, and in their stead I beheld the horrors, the corruption, the evils and hypocrisy of society, and as I stood among them, a young wife, a great wail of agony went out from my soul.

I come before you to declare that my sex are entitled to the inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Is it fair to treat a woman worse than a man, and then revile her because she is a woman?

While others prayed for the good time coming, I worked for it.

It makes no difference who or what you are, old or young, black or white, pagan, Jew, or Christian, I want to love you all and be loved by you all, and I mean to have your love.

I do not shake hands from a sanitary standpoint.

Let women issue a declaration of independence sexually, and absolutely refuse to cohabit with men until they are acknowledged as equals in everything, and the victory would be won in a single week.

I endeavor to make the most of everything.

Woman, no less than man, can qualify herself for the more onerous occupations of life.

I now announce myself as candidate for the Presidency. I anticipate criticism; but however unfavorable I trust that my sincerity will not be called into question.

I shall not change my course because those who assume to be better than I desire it.

I am a free lover. I have an inalienable, constitutional and natural right to love whom I may, to love as long or short a period as I can; to change that love every day if I please.

I would like above any other place to go to Hartford. I want to face the conservatism there centered and compel it into decency.

Why is a woman to be treated differently? Woman suffrage will succeed, despite this miserable guerilla opposition.

Women have no government.

I and others of my sex find ourselves controlled by a form of government in the inauguration of which we had no voice.

I ask the rights to pursue happiness by having a voice in that government to which I am accountable.

The women of the country have the power in their own hands, in spite of the law and the government being altogether of the male order.

My judges preach against free love openly, practice it secretly.

If women would today would rise en masse and demand their emancipation, the men would be compelled to grant it.

My opinions and principles are subjects of just criticism. I put myself before the public voluntarily.

If Congress refuse to listen to and grant what women ask, there is but one course left then to pursue. What is there left for women to do but to become the mothers of the future government?

To go behind a man's hall-door is mean, cowardly, unfair opposition.

Suffrage is a common right of citizenship. Women have the right of suffrage. Logically it cannot be escaped.

Denounce me for advocating freedom if you can, and I will bear your curse with a better resignation.

When I found I had given birth to a human wreckage, to a child that was an imbecile, my heart was broken.

By what right do you refuse to accept the vote of a citizen of the United States?

For a woman to consider a financial question was shuddered over as a profanity.

The Western musical canon came about not merely by accumulation, but by opposition and subversion, both to the ruling powers on whom composers depended for their livelihoods and to other musics.

But let's be clear. We're talking about a country where there's no opposition. As leader he can ignore Parliament and - sorry that's Tony Blair isn't it? Um, so he doesn't even have to ask the country before he goes to war - sorry that's still Tony Blair.

From this experience we have learned that in a big party it is important to have the necessary and often controversial discussions on policy issues such as the health system while in opposition.

But to be the Vicar of Christ, to claim to exercise his prerogatives on earth, does involve a claim to his attributes, and therefore our opposition to Popery is opposition to a man claiming to be God.

Opposition is true friendship.

It is to be deeply regretted that the clergymen would oppose an effort to teach the people the Bible truths; nevertheless, we find much opposition everywhere, and many clergymen will attempt to prevent the people from reading what is here written.

We supported the contras. We're not against all opposition to government, or all paramilitary operations.

Greatness is not measured by what a man or woman accomplishes, but by the opposition he or she has overcome to reach his goals.

I have never believed you make your case stronger by bad-mouthing your opposition.

First of all, I can't forget my first responsibility - which is to be the Leader of the Opposition and that's to provide an alternative government.

Saddam Hussein was a brutal tyrant. I am glad he is now on trial for crimes against humanity. But, opposition to a dictator is not the measure I use when deciding whether to send our men and women in uniform off to war and possible death.

Ah, but it's nice to be in the opposition, nice to be a bone in somebody's throat.

Some of the folks on both sides might be sincere, but it does seem as if it is only the opposition that cares about the Bill of Rights most of the time.

I write for an audience that likes what I like, reads what I read, thinks about the things I think about. In many ways, this puts me in opposition to the people who go to the theater generally.

A certain amount of opposition is a great help to a man. Kites rise against, not with, the wind.

People are no longer primarily in opposition, nor can they be said to be interacting, rather they are participating in this pool of common meaning which is capable of constant development and change.

I believe any question that man can ask has a reasonable answer-at least an answer that is as consistent with God's existence as it is in opposition to God's existence.

I found enormous opposition to my religion. It's like if you want to strengthen your biceps, you lift heavy weight, as heavy as you can handle, and work your muscles against resistance until it grows strong. I had to do that with my religion.

These men were religious when the spirit of religion was buried in forms and ceremonies, and when the priesthood had armed itself with the civil powers to put down all opposition, and suppress all freedom, intellectual, civil, and religious.

We experience problem-solving sessions as war zones, we view competing ideas as enemies, and we use problems as weapons to blame and defeat opposition forces. No wonder we can't come up with real lasting solutions!
