"Not by the forces of civil war can you govern the very weakest woman. You can kill that woman, but she escapes you then; you cannot govern her. No power on earth can govern a human being, however feeble, who withholds his or her consent."
Emmeline Pankhurst was a British political activist and leader in the campaign for women’s suffrage. She founded the Women’s Social and Political Union and became known for militant tactics in pursuit of voting rights. Her work helped secure full voting equality for British women in 1928.
