The late suffragette Susan B. Anthony (1820 – 1906) (Great quotes: “No man is good enough to govern any woman without her consent.” “Men, their rights, and nothing more; women, their rights, and nothing less.” “I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires.”)
The late Father of Science Galileo Galilei (1564 – 1642) (He promoted the idea of heliocentrism – that the earth revolves around the sun. For this radical idea, Galileo became an enemy of the Catholic Church. He was found guilty of heresy, and forced to recant. He spent the last nine years of his life under house arrest. Stephen Hawking thought Gaileo was the one individual most responsible for modern science, and Einstein called him the “father of science.” In 1992, Pope John Paul II admitted that the Catholic Church was mistaken in its treatment of Galileo and that the earth does indeed revolve around the sun.)
The late scientist Cyrus McCormick (1809-1884) (he automated crop harvesting)
