Women have cleaned up things since time began, and if women get into politics there will be a cleaning up of pigeon-holes and forgotten corners in which the dust of years have fallen. -- early women's rights activist Nellie McClung, speaking a bit optimistically.

After that is secured then men ad women can take turns being angels. -- Agnes MacPhail (1925)
