American Leader of the Women's Suffrage Movement, Free Love Advocate, Anti-Capitalist Socialist Reformer, and Ran for President of the United States in the 1872 Election
: An American leader of the women's suffrage movement who ran for President of the United States in the 1872 election. While many historians and authors agree that Woodhull was the first woman to run for the presidency, some disagree with classifying it as a true candidacy because she was younger than the constitutionally mandated age of 35.

Quote #7 on Social Struggle Quotes >> Sex and Love
“Marriage must consist either of love or of law, since it may exist in form with either term absent; that is to say, people may be married by law and all love be lacking; and they may also be married by love and lack all sanction of law. True marriage must in reality consist entirely either of law or love, since there can be no compromise between the law of nature and statute law by which the former shall yield to the latter.”
