Woman Suffrage

Famous quotes containing the words woman and/or suffrage:

    When we made love,
    she issued hundreds of orders
    and her cheeks bloomed with joy,
    but at dawn,
    this same woman hangs her head
    and I’m not so sure she’s my lover.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    ... woman does not see what people of intellect perceived fifty years ago: that suffrage is an evil, that it has only helped to enslave people, that it has but closed their eyes that they may not see how craftily they were made to submit.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
