Organizing is an educational process. The best educational process in the union is the picket line and the boycott. You learn about life.

The end of all knowledge must be the building up of character.

Every time we sit at a table at night or in the morning to enjoy the fruits and grain and vegetables from our good earth, remember that they come from the work of men and women and children who have been exploited for generations.

Money is not going to organize the disadvantaged, the powerless, or the poor. We need other weapons. That's why the War on Poverty is such a miserable failure. You put out a big pot of money and all you do is fight over it. Then you run out of money and you run out of troops.

Grant me courage to serve others; For in service there is true life.
