The whole argument with the anti-suffragists, or even the critical suffragist man, is this: that you can govern human beings without their consent.

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.

Man's enemies are not demons, but human beings like himself.

When it comes to the pinch, human beings are heroic.

Human beings have always been mythmakers.

What I'm interested in is human beings alone.
