Sydney, Lady Morgan on Women

d. 1859 Ireland

← All quotes by Sydney, Lady Morgan

1 quote

The influence of woman was, is, and ever will be exercised, directly or indirectly, in good or in evil! It is a part of the scheme of nature. Give her then the lights she is capable of receiving; educate her (whatever her station) for taking her part in society. Her ignorance has often made her interference fatal: her knowledge, never.
