    Ellen Battelle Dietrick, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 13, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)

    The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    The history of American politics is littered with bodies of people who took so pure a position that they had no clout at all.
