"I am a child of nature, who has been taught to think; and I will not resign my birthright for a mess of pottage."

"I am a woman, and I have a right to think."

"I have a heart that is ready to burst with the tenderest affection, and a head that is full of the most exalted notions."

"I have a heart that is not to be trifled with."

"I am not a mere shadow, but a substance."
