Famous quotes containing the words mistaken and/or husband:
“If woman alone had suffered under these mistaken traditions [of womens subordination], if she could have borne the evil by herself, it would have been less pitiful, but her brother man, in the laws he created and ignorantly worshipped, has suffered with her. He has lost her highest help; he has crippled the intelligence he needed; he has belittled the very source of his own being and dwarfed the image of his Maker.”
—Clara Barton (18211912)
“Whenever a husband and wife begin to discuss their marriage they are giving evidence at a coroners inquest.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
