Great quotes!

[Onix]

Hi ladies,
I am new to the forum, nice to meet you all. Stumbled across these quotes yesterday, and thought they were too good not to share.

"Let me tell you what I think of bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives women a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel... The picture of free, untrammeled womanhood." -Susan B. Anthony, 1896

And, less inspiring, but funny....

"The bicycle will accomplish more for women's sensible dress than all the reform movements that have ever been waged"- unknown author, Demorest's family magazine, 1895

and...


"The bicycle is just as good company as most husbands and, when it gets old and shabby, a woman can dispose of it and get a new one without shocking the entire community"- Ann strong, Minneapolis tribune, 1895


Enjoy!

(And, thanks to the Kona 2009 catalog, where the quotes were found!)
