More quotes by Mother Jones
I will tell the truth wherever I please.
Mother Jones
Some day the workers will take possession of your city hall, and when we do, no child will be sacrificed on the altar of profit!
Mother Jones
The employment of children is doing more to fill prisons, insane asylums, almshouses, reformatories, slums, and gin shops than all the efforts of reformers are doing to improve society.
Mother Jones
Mourn the dead, fight like hell for the living
Mother Jones
Out of labor's struggle in Arizona came better conditions for the workers, who must everywhere, at all times, under advantage and disadvantage work out their own salvation
Mother Jones
And who is responsible for this appalling child slavery? Everyone.
Mother Jones
You know I took an oath to tell the truth when I took the witness stand
Mother Jones
I believe that no man who holds a leader's position should ever accept favors from either side. He is then committed to show favors. A leader must stand alone.
Mother Jones
Slowly those who create the wealth of the world are permitted to share it. The future is in labor's strong, rough hands.
Mother Jones
Little girls and boys, barefooted, walked up and down between the endless rows of spindles, reaching thin little hands into the machinery to repair snapped threads
Mother Jones
I'm not afraid of the press or the Militia.
Mother Jones
But in Shimabukuro's hands, as he breaks out experimental jazz, lays down a steady blues train, or shreds on rock anthems, this little jumping flea becomes a melodic monster.
Mother Jones
I was born in revolution.
Mother Jones
I am not unaware that leaders betray, and sell out, and play false.
Mother Jones
I'm not a humanitarian, I'ma hell-raiser.
Mother Jones
a TEN-YEAR-OLD lad in Indianapolis who was arrested for picking up coal along the side of railroad tracks is now in jail. If the boy had known enough to steal the whole railroad he would be heralded as a Napoleon of finance.
Mother Jones
I went West and took part in the strike of the machinists - the Southern Pacific Railroad, the corporation that swung California by its golden tail, that controlled its legislature, its farmers, its preachers, its workers.
Mother Jones
My address is like my shoes. It travels with me. I abide where there is a fight against wrong.
Mother Jones
I nursed men back to sanity who were driven to despair. I solicited clothes for the ragged children, for the desperate mothers. I laid out the dead, the martyrs of the strike.
Mother Jones
I live in the United States, but I do not know exactly where. My address is wherever there is a fight against oppression.
