“To condemn slavery was one thing—that I could do in my own individual heart—but female ministers!”
― The Invention of Wings
― The Invention of Wings
“From what I understand, signora, the Quakers, who are also known as Friends, are a small group of devout people who worship in silence, believing no one person can interpret the word of the Lord but all have the Light of God in them. When it shines, whoever feels it may address others--- the Friends--- who gather for meetings. They believe that under the loving eyes of God the Father, all men and women are equal."
"Equal? Men and women?" Rosamund could scarce believe it.
"Men and women, the nobles and the poor, the gentry and the servants-- even those with dusky skins or cream. All the same."
"And they worship in silence? How?"
"By communing with God in their own way.”
