Quotes by S. Josephine Baker (?)

“In any case a civilization which insists upon compulsory education must logically insist upon compulsory health of the children it educates.”

“By the way, I am changing the name of German measles. Hereafter it will be known as 'Liberty measles'." And it did bear that extraordinary title for the duration of [World War I]. War psychosis is a fearful and wonderful disrupter of horse sense.”

“Presently I met a woman I knew who was wearing a bright new khaki uniform, loaded down with all the leather and metal gadgets it would hold. She was sailing for London, she said, to supervise the work of feeding school-lunches to undernourished children in the London schools. Wasn't it horrible, she said, that on account of the war 12 percent of them were undernourished? 'That is horrible,' I said, 'but what would you say if I told you t hat, in New York, 21 percent of the school children are undernourished, and largely on account of that same war?”
