“Capitalism stifles people's creativity. Only a minority is asked to put their minds to thinking about society—and most of them do it for the purpose of making themselves richer, not for achieving any common good. Imagine a society in which it mattered what ordinary people thought about what they were doing—where it mattered what an assembly line worker thought about the pace of work, what a hospital worker thought about the availability of medical resources, what a student thought about how history is taught. That's a world in which people would become fully alive in a way they never will under capitalism.”

“Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.”
