“It’s important to realize that we all need to work together. With Weaving Movements, we are all interdependent and we all have to work together. If we could just realize that and understand that, we’ll keep our country strong.”

A women’s place in history has never been given the attention that it needs to be given, and that’s why we have a lot of the misogyny in our society today.

We criticize and separate ourselves from the process. We’ve got to jump right in there with both feet.

Every minute a chance to change the world.

I quit because I can’t stand seeing kids come to class hungry and needing shoes. I thought I could do more by organizing farm workers than by trying to teach their hungry children.

Honor the hands that harvest your crops.

We have to get back down to basics. We have to start organizing at the neighborhood level to get people educated to vote.

Sometimes, we have to promote ourselves. Just go out and be very active about trying to find an opportunity.

We need to keep ringing the bell, wake people up to get our democracy together. Farm workers are like a symbol, and it is good that people are paying attention.

We as women should shine light on our accomplishments and not feel egotistical when we do. It’s a way to let the world know that we as women can accomplish great things!

If we can just convince other people to get involved, this could make some major changes in our society. It’s very exhilarating.

Our society is connecting workers with the products people consume and recognizing workers for their contributions. It is important to do that, and to have organized labor – a middle class – to preserve our democracy.

I hope people become inspired to become active in their community. That’s the important thing.

That’s the history of the world. His story is told, hers isn’t.

I am happy to see that, increasingly, people care about farm workers. There is tremendous interest in where and how our food is grown.

Employers able to work together with workers and sharing gains and profits will lead to a much better world, getting away from income inequality.

Once you see the outcomes and the results, and you see how many people are helped and benefitting, you want to keep on doing it because it’s so simple.

A playwright lives in an occupied country. And if you can’t live that way you don’t stay.

What is the most innocent place in any country? Is it not the insane asylum? These people drift through life truly innocent, unable to see into themselves at all.

The white men were roused by a mere instinct of self-preservation—until at last there had sprung into existence a great Ku Klux Klan, a veritable empire of the South, to protect the Southern country.

In this country your guilty until proven wealthy.

Her body is a undiscovered country and she is afraid that someone will colonize it and expect her to thank them for the wreckage.

I am in favor of helping the prosperity of all countries because, when we are all prosperous, the trade with each becomes more valuable to the other.

America is not anything if it consists of each of us. It is something only if it consists of all of us.

I do not prize the word cheap. It is not a word of inspiration. It is the badge of poverty, the signal of distress. Cheap merchandise means cheap men and cheap men mean a cheap country.
