Victoria C. Woodhull: “Women have the same inalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness that men have.”

What, then, should be the sphere of justice in maintaining equality in freedom?

Every thinking person knows that no such persons or principles are in authority now, and that they have not been these many years.

How has it been possible thus long for leaders to control the masses, except that the masses have permitted others to act for them, and that without rendering any account for such action?

Our Government is a nearer approach to a popular form, and more nearly allied to true freedom and justice than any other in existence.
