  Paul Eldridge
• To this heroic woman, who left ease, elegance, a high social circle of rich culture, and with true self-abnegation gave her life, in the country of her adoption, to the teachings of her highest idea of truth, it is fitting that we pay a tribute of just, though late, respect.Women joined in the hue and cry against her, little thinking that men were building the gallows and making them the executioners.

  Frances Wright
• Upon the gallows hung a wretch, Too sullied for the hell To which the law entitled him. As nature’s curtain fell The one who bore him tottered in, For this was woman’s son. “’T was all I had,” she stricken gasped; Oh, what a livid boon!

  Emily Dickinson
• No Indian prince has to his palace More followers than a thief to the gallows.

  Samuel Butler (poet)
