Citas de Mary C. Ames

• El hombre siempre necesita a la mujer como amiga. Necesita su visión más clara, su perspicacia más sutil, su pensamiento más suave, su alma alada, su corazón puro y tierno. Siempre la mujer necesita al hombre como amigo. Necesita el vigor de su propósito, el ardor de su voluntad, su juicio más sereno, su fuerza de acción más valiente, su reverencia y su devoción.

• Today the manliest man would be ashamed to look into the eyes of the woman by his side and tell her that he is the master because he could knock her down with perfect ease, and break her bones with much greater facility than she could his. And yet, out of man's brute nature, out of that most ignoble in himself, has come his loudest assumption of superiority, his longest and lowest tyranny.

• What more degrades woman today than that she so often seeks marriage as a support? Why is the holy sacrament of love, the sanctity of the family state, so often prostituted and destroyed, but because marriage is entered upon as a necessity or a convenience? And what can so place marriage on its only true basis of mutual love, mutual fitness, mutual esteem, as for woman to make herself independent of it as a mere means of subsistence?

• The woman born to physical subjection and degradation can never seek or use knowledge as her birthright. Never till she holds her sex in honor, as man holds his, can she be his equal, even in her own realm.

• Una isla brillante en un mar tempestuoso, La buscamos siempre con sonrisas y suspiros; El día de hoy es triste. En el anodino "Ser" yace el "Mañana" sereno y encantador.

• I lay my tasks down one by one; I sit in the silence of twilight grace. Out of the shadows, deep and dun, Steals, like a star, my Baby's face. .... I will take up my work once more, As if I had never laid it down. Who will dream that I ever wore, In triumph, motherhood's sacred crown? .... Nevertheless, the way is long, And tears leap up in the light of the sun. I'd give my world for a cradle-song, And a kiss from Baby?only one.
