More From Elizabeth Cady Stanton
- "The history of the past is but one long struggle upward to equality."
- "The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls."
- "The best protection any woman can have… is courage."
More In Age
- "Well, I’m in my 60s now. I finally look it, I think. People until I was 60 would always say they thought I looked younger, which I think, without flattering myself, I did, but I think I certainly have, as George Orwell says people do after a certain age, the face they deserve."― Christopher Hitchens
- "Old age is the most unexpected of all the things that can happen to a man."― James Thurber
- "In youth we run into difficulties. In old age difficulties run into us."― Beverly Sills
