Men may be physically stronger, but women are not mentally or morally weaker
Drawn from what Sarah Grimké said
What Sarah Grimké actually said
- Sarah Grimké American abolitionist and women's rights writer (1792 to 1873)
If physical weakness is alluded to, I cheerfully concede the superiority; if brute force is what my brethren are claiming, I am willing to let them have all the honor they desire; but if they mean to intimate, that mental or moral weakness belongs to woman, more than to man, I utterly disclaim the charge.
