Marriage Rights

Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or rights:

    Worst, when this sensualism intrudes into the education of young women, and withers the hope and affection of human nature, by teaching that marriage signifies nothing but a housewife’s thrift, and that woman’s life has no other aim.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    ...I know nothing of man’s rights, or woman’s rights; human rights are all that I recognise.
