Quotes from M. Carey Thomas

One man's mind differs from another man's mind far more widely than all women's minds differ from all men.

My one aim and concentrated purpose shall be and is to show that women can learn, can reason, can compete with men in the grand fields of literature and science . . .

. . . a woman can be a woman and a true one without having all her time engrossed by dress and society.

One thing I am determined on is that by the time I die my brain shall weigh as much as a man's if study and learning can make it so.

The man's world must become a man's and a woman's world. Why are we afraid?
