“The real milestones are less prepossessing. They come to the door of memory unannounced, stray dogs that amble in, sniff around a bit and simply never leave. Our lives are measured by these.”

Every discrimination against women in the constitutions and laws of the several States is today null and void, precisely as in every one against Negroes.

What an absurd notion that women have not intellectual and moral faculties sufficent for anything else but domestic concerns!

The prolonged slavery of woman is the darkest page in human history.

I do not consider divorce an evil by any means. It is just as much a refuge for women married to brutal men as Canada was to the slaves of brutal masters.

I will cut off this right arm of mine before I will ask for the ballot for the Negro and not for the woman.

To be wedded to an idea may be, after all, the holiest and happiest of marriages.

Wherever, on the face of the globe or on the page of history, you show me a disfranchised class, I will show you a degraded class of labor.

Governments never do any great good things from mere principle, from mere love of justice.

I have given my life and all I am to it, and now I want my last act to be to give it all I have, to the last cent.

Being persons, then, women are citizens; and no state has a right to make any new law, or to enforce any old law, that shall abridge their privileges or immunities.

Cautious, careful people, always casting about to preserve their reputations – can never effect a reform.

The dog is the god of frolic.

The average dog is a nicer person than the average person.

If dogs could talk it would take a lot of the fun out of owning one.

America is like a dog. I’m sorry, but it is. It cannot understand actual words. It understands inflection. It understands fear. But you can’t actually explain issues to a dog.

I go out to the kitchen to feed the dog, but that’s about as much cooking as I do.

I’m actually more of a cat guy than a dog person because I travel so much. I love cats.

The excuse of having a dog is great, because before I had a dog, I wouldn’t be like, ‘I need to go hike for two hours’; my girlfriend would have been like, ‘What are you doing?’ Now I take the dog, and she comes with me.
