Victoria C. Woodhull: “But instead of this we have to submit to the consequences of a policy of cowardice.”

It is in the people themselves, and in the fundamental principles upon which society is built, and those which the people allow government to be administered upon.

Thousands possessed of comprehensive principles in a semi state of application have sunk with them into obscurity for lack of appreciation and support.

Being so vastly in the majority, every office should be filled by them.

And this is no more true of the pauper laborers of Europe and the slave laborers of Asia than it is of the free labor of America.
