"Until the position and mission of women are
properly estimated and cared for, in vain
shall we look for perfect oneness in parents,
and real worth in children. Never until she is
valued and educated as man's equal will unions
be perfect, and their consequence blissful."

"First and foremost, I insist on the equality of
woman with man. Every officer and soldier should
insist upon the truth that woman is as important
and valuable, as capable, and as necessary to the
progress and happiness of the world as man."

"It is more difficult for women to reach the higher
positions than for men. To be advanced,
a man requires hardly more than average gifts.
A woman must be superior."

"With all the record of opposition to Jesus in the
Gospels, there is no instance where a woman ever
opposed Christ. No women ever forsook, betrayed or
in any way expressed enmity against Christ. Rather
they followed Him, opened to Him their homes and
hearts, bathed His feet with their tears, anointed
his head with spikenard, and now as men were
hounding Him to death, they showed the
compassion of their tears and sorrow and with
Him went weeping to His martyrdom."
