For mines are for men, not for money. And money is not something to go mad about, and throw your hat into the air for. Money is for food and clothes and comfort, and a visit to the pictures. Money is to make happy the lives of children. Money is for security, and for dreams, and for hopes, and for purposes. Money is for buying the fruits of the earth, of the land where you were born.

Alan PatonThe tragedy is not that things are broken. The tragedy is that things are not mended again.
Alan PatonWe do not work for men. We work for the land and the people. We do not even work for money.
