Quote #5 on Economic Struggle Quotes >> Workers and Class
“Final success, I would fain hope, must be on the side of justice. I am certain, however, that till the triumph of labor be complete; till productive industry alone be opulent, and till idleness alone be poor, till the admirable maxim that "he who sows shall reap" be solidly established; till the right of property shall be founded on principles of justice, and not on those of slavery; till man shall be held more in honor than the clod be treads on, or the machine he guides -- there cannot, and there ought not to be either peace on earth or goodwill among men.”
