“That vote of yours has cost millions of dollars and the lives of thousands of women. Women have suffered agony of soul which you never can comprehend, that you and your daughters might inherit political freedom. That vote has been costly. Prize it. The vote is a power, a weapon of offense and defense, a prayer. Use it intelligently, conscientiously, prayerfully. Progress is calling to you to make no pause. Act.”
-Carrie Chapman Catt at the White House in 1920
This quote came from a visually beautiful and deeply moving post yesterday at The Habit of Art by Kelcey Ervick.
I loved it.
Sharing it today feels like the best thing to do.
Say it, Sister!!
