"Feminism means revolution, and I am a revolutionist. I believe in revolution as a principle. It does good to everybody."
- Frances Perkins, American workers' rights advocate and the first woman to serve in the President's cabinet.
Taken from the excellent biography The Woman Behind the New Deal: The Life of Frances Perkins, FDR's Secretary of Labor and His Moral Conscience, by Kristin Downey.
