    Mary A. [Elizabeth, Countess Von] Arnim (1866–1941)

    I assert that the first, and fundamental right of every woman is to be allowed the free exercise of her own belief; and that free exercise is not allowed when she is in any way restrained either morally or intellectually.
    —Margaret Anna Cusack (1829–1899)
