“By now, legions of tireless essayists and op-ed columnists have dressed feminists down for making such a fuss about entering the professions and earning equal pay that everyone’s attention has been distracted from the important contributions of mothers working at home.

—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)

“No democracy can long survive which does not accept as fundamental to its very existence the recognition of the rights of minorities.”
