Cady Stanton

Famous quotes containing the words cady stanton, cady and/or stanton:

    The most fitting monuments this nation can build are schoolhouses and homes for those who do the work of the world. It is no answer to say that they are accustomed to rags and hunger. In this world of plenty every human being has a right to food, clothes, decent shelter, and the rudiments of education.
    —Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    I have always found that when men have exhausted their own resources, they fall back on “the intentions of the Creator.” But their platitudes have ceased to have any influence with those women who believe they have the same facilities for communication with the Divine mind as men have.
    —Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    See the wild birds on the wing,
    Hear the bells that sweetly ring,
    When you feel like singin’, sing—
    Keep a-goin’!
    —Frank Lebby Stanton (1857–1927)
