Trust in God - she will provide  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) I am what you call a hooligan-  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) Not by the forces of civil war can you govern the very weakest woman. You can kill that woman, but she escapes you then; you cannot govern her. No power on earth can govern a human being, however feeble, who withholds his or her consent.  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) If men will not do us justice, they shall do us violence  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) Justice and judgment lie often a world apart  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) Window-breaking, when Englishmen do it, is regarded as honest expression of political opinion.

The other baby is an impatient baby and cries lustily, screams and kicks and makes everybody unpleasant until it is fed. Well, we know perfectly well which baby is attended to first. That is the whole history of politics  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) From infancy, I had been accustomed to hear pro and con discussions of slavery and the American Civil War. Although the British government finally decided not to recognise the Confederacy, public opinion in England was sharply divided on the questions both of slavery and of secession.  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) Those men and women are fortunate who are born at a time when a great struggle for human freedom is in progress.  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) My parents, especially my father, discussed the question of my brothers’ education as a matter of real importance. My education and that of my sister were scarcely discussed at all.  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) I would rather be a rebel than a slave  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) I have never advised the destruction of life, but of property, yes  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) Men make the moral code and they expect women to accept it  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) A defiant deed has greater value than unnumerable thousands of words  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) The argument of the broken window pane is the most valuable argument in modern politics  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) You have to be there all the time and see that they do not snow you under, if you are really going to get your reform realized  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) Manchester is a city which has witnessed a great many stirring episodes, especially of a political character. Generally speaking, its citizens have been liberal in their sentiments, defenders of free speech and liberty of opinion  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) Our sons and daughters must be trained in national service, taught to give as well as to receive  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) Those men and women are fortunate who are born at a time when a great struggle for human freedom is in progress. It is an added good fortune to have parents who take a personal part in the great movements of their time. I am glad and thankful that this was my case  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) You must make women count as much as men; you must have an equal standard of morals; and the only way to enforce that is through giving women political power so that you can get that equal moral standard registered in the laws of the country. It is the only way  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) You have to make more noise than anybody else, you have to make yourself more obtrusive than anybody else, you have to fill all the papers more than anybody else, in fact you have to be there all the time and see that they do not snow you under, if you are really going to get your reform realized  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) How different the reasoning is that men adopt when they are discussing the cases of men and those of women  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) It is perfectly evident to any logical mind that when you have got the vote, by the proper use of the vote in sufficient numbers, by combination, you can get out of any legislature whatever you want, or, if you cannot get it, you can send them about their business and choose other people who will be more attentive to your demands  (Emmeline Pankhurst Quotes) Women had always fought for men, and for their children.
