Quotes from Susan..

• Independence is happiness.

• Men their rights and nothing more; women their rights and nothing less.

• Failure is impossible.

• The older I get, the greater power I seem to have to help the world; I am like a snowball -- the further I am rolled the more I gain.

• It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union.

• Suffrage is the pivotal right.

• The fact is, women are in chains, and their servitude is all the more debasing because they do not realize it.

• Modern invention has banished the spinning wheel, and the same law of progress makes the woman of today a different woman from her grandmother.
