“Who we’re told to be carries the weight of history behind it. We may not like it but we better know it. Who we’re told to be is no accident, but rather a purposeful construction of centuries of accumulated fear. Who we’re told to be can be deliberately deconstructed.”
― Mel Ash

“No use to preach to the working-man courtesy & politeness when at the same time the working-man is not given working conditions under which he can stay polite and soft-mannered.”
― B. Traven

“Anyone who is willing to work and is serious about it will certainly find a job. Only you must not go to the man who tells you this, for he has no job to offer and doesn't know anyone who knows of a vacancy. This is exactly the reason why he gives you such generous advice, out of brotherly love, and to demonstrate how little he knows the world.”
