The Case of Edith Cavell A Study of the Rights of Non-Combatants Quotes

“And you, women of America and of the World! Will you not honor the memory of this martyr of your sex, who for all time will be mourned as was the noblest Greek maiden, Antigone, who also gave her life that her brother might have the rites of sepulture? Will you not carry on in her name and for her memory those sacred ministrations of mercy which were her lifework? Make her cause—the cause of justice and mercy—your own!”
― James Montgomery Beck, The Case of Edith Cavell A Study of the Rights of Non-Combatants
