Flora Tristan Quote

The law that enslaves women and deprives them of education, also oppresses you, proletarian men. (...) In the name of your own interest, men; in the name of your improvement, yours, men; finally, in the name of the universal welfare of all, I urge you to demand rights for women.

Two things amaze me: the intelligence of beasts and the brutality of men.

Flora Tristan

All the misfortunes of the world come from the forgetfulness and contempt that has been shown to the natural and indispensable rights of women.

Flora Tristan

The level of civilization achieved by various human societies is in proportion to the independence enjoyed by women.
