In Non-violence The Cause Has To Be

I'm Not Going To Ask For Anything Unless The Workers Want It. If They Want It, They'll Ask For It.

People Who Have Lost Their Hunger For Justice Are Not Ultimately Powerful. They Are Like Sick People Who Have Lost Their Appetite For What Is Truly Nourishing. Such Sick People Should Not Frighten Or Discourage Us. They Should Be Prayed For Along With The Sick People Who Are In The Hospital. "the Love For Justice That Is In Us Is Not Only The Best Part Of Our Being But It Is Also The Most True To Our Nature."

There Are Vivid Memories From My Childhood-what We Had To Go Through Because Of Low Wages And The Conditions, Basically Because There Was No Union. I Suppose If I Wanted To Be Fair I Could Say That I'm Trying To Settle A Personal Score. I Could Dramatize It By Saying That I Want To Bring Social Justice To Farm Workers. But The Truth Is That I Went Through A Lot Of Hell, And A Lot Of People Did. If We Can Even The Score A Little For The Workers Then We Are Doing Something. Besides, I Don't Know Any Other Work I Like To Do Better Than This. I Really Don't.

We Are Organizers At Heart. Most Of Us In The Movement Take Great Pride In Being Able To Put Things Together.

I Think One Of The Great, Great Problems...is Confusing People To The Point Where They Become Immobile. In Fact, The More Things People Can Find Out For Themselves, The More Vigor The Organization Is Going To Have.
