Famous quotes containing the words foundation and/or franklin:
“No genuine equality, no real freedom, no true manhood or womanhood can exist on any foundation save that of pecuniary independence. As a right over a man’s subsistence is a power over his moral being, so a right over a woman’s subsistence enslaves her will, degrades her pride and vitiates her whole moral nature.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1907)
“At twenty years of age, the will reigns; at thirty, the wit; and at forty, the judgment.”
—Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)
