Théodore Guérin Quote

... they wish to make us pay taxes, which is contrary to the laws of the State. We refuse positively. It embarrasses them a little to have women resist them and speak to them about the law. Woman in this country is only yet one fourth of the family. I hope that, through the influence of religion and education, she will eventually become at least one half the "better half."


To Mother Mary, Superior General, Ruille-sur-Loir, 1852-02-18.
