When any person suffers for someone in greater need, that person is a human.

...the workers aren't going to stop struggling. They're going to struggle to have a union and they have the right to have it. The police repression and the grower indifference to the workers' demands for recognition cannot go unheard so we're going to keep on struggling until we get that recognition.

Today, the growers are like a punch-drunk old boxer who doesn't know he's past his prime. The times are changing. The political and social environment has changed. The chickens are coming home to roost - and the time to account for past sins is approaching.

Non-violence has suffered its biggest defeat in the hands of people who most want to talk about it.

Students must have initiative; they should not be mere imitators. They must learn to think and act for themselves - and be free.

The thing that we have going for us is that people are willing to sacrifice themselves.

We'll organize workers in this movement as long as we're willing to sacrifice. The moment we stop sacrificing, we stop organizing.
