Stanton

Famous quotes containing the word stanton:

    ... all the cares and anxieties, the trials and disappointments of my whole life, are light, when balanced with my sufferings in childhood and youth from the theological dogmas which I sincerely believed, and the gloom connected with everything associated with the name of religion, the church, the parsonage, the graveyard, and the solemn, tolling bell.
    —Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    See the wild birds on the wing,
    Hear the bells that sweetly ring,
    When you feel like singin’, sing—
    Keep a-goin’!
    —Frank Lebby Stanton (1857–1927)

    We found nothing grand in the history of the Jews nor in the morals inculcated in the Pentateuch.... I know of no other books that so fully teach the subjection and degradation of woman.
    —Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
