Letter Ballot

Famous quotes containing the words letter and/or ballot:

“[I]n our country economy, letter writing is an hors d’oeuvre. It is no part of the regular routine of the day.”

“Perhaps the fact that I am not a Radical or a believer in the all powerful ballot for women to right her wrongs and that I do not scorn womanly duties, but claim it as a privilege to clean up and sort of supervise the room and sew things, etc., is winning me stronger allies than anything else.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
