MOTHER JONES




"Pray for the dead and fight like hell for the living."

"There are no limits to which powers of privilege will not go to keep the workers in slavery."

"I asked a man in prison once how he happened to be there and he said he had stolen a pair of shoes. I told him if he had stolen a railroad he would be a United States Senator."


"I have always advised men to read. All my life I have told them to study the works of those great authors who have been interested in making this world a happier place for those who do its drudgery."

"My address is like my shoes: it travels with me. I abide where there is a fight against wrong."

"The future is in labor's strong, rough hands."
