· "The war gave a lot of people jobs. It led them to expect more than they had before. People's expectations, financially, spiritually, were raised. There was such a beautiful dream. We were gonna reach the end of the rainbow... I remember a woman saying on the bus that she hoped the war didn't end until she got her refrigerator paid for. An old man hit her over the head with an umbrella. He said, 'How dare you!' (Laughs.)"

- Peggy Terry, a woman who worked in a munitions factory during the war44

· "I think a lot of women said, Screw that noise. 'Cause they had a taste of freedom, they had a taste of making their own money, a taste of spending their own money, making their own decisions. I think the beginning of the women's movement had its seeds right there in World War Two."- Dellie Hahne, an educator who worked as a nurse's aid for the Red Cross during the war43

· "[There is an] erroneous impression that this and other countries are at war with one another. They are not. Their governments composed of men and responsible only to the men of each country, and backed by the majority of men who have caught the war and glory fever, have declared war on one another. The women of all these countries have not been consulted as to whether they would have war or not..."Harriette Beanland, English dressmaker, three days after WWI declared, 1914.
