“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.”
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, author of The Woman’s Bible, who founded the National Woman’s Suffrage Association in New York, with Susan B. Anthony, on this day in 1869
