Quote by Margaret Rogerson

“Înțelegea acum că lumea nu era binevoitoare cu fetele tinere, mai ales când acestea se comportau într-un fel care nu era pe placul bărbaților și rosteau adevăruri pe care bărbații nu erau pregătiți să le audă.”

“Jamás conocerán los hombres el bienestar bajo un régimen de comunidad de bienes. ¿Por qué medios se podrá conseguir la prosperidad común si todos se niegan a trabajar? Nadie tendrá un estímulo personal, y la confianza en que todos trabajan le hará perezoso. Por otra parte, si la miseria subleva los espíritus y ya no es posible adquirir nada como propio, ¿no caerá la sociedad de modo fatal y constante en la rebelión y la venganza? Si, además, desaparece la autoridad de los jueces y el temor saludable que inspiran, ¿qué papel pueden tener en la sociedad hombres para quienes no existiría ninguna diferencia social? Es algo que ni siquiera me atrevo a imaginar.”

“Sol Bloom, chief of the Midway, emerged from the fair a rich young man. He invested heavily in a company that bought perishable foods and shipped them in the latest refrigerated cars to far-off cities. It was a fine, forward-looking business. But the Pullman strike halted all train traffic through Chicago, and the perishable foods rotted in their traincars. He was ruined. He was still young, however, and still Bloom. He used his remaining funds to buy two expensive suits, on the theory that whatever he did next, he had to look convincing. “But one thing was quite clear. . . .” he wrote. “[B]eing broke didn’t disturb me in the least. I had started with nothing, and if I now found myself with nothing, I was at least even. Actually, I was much better than even: I had had a wonderful time.” Bloom went on to become a congressman and one of the crafters of the charter that founded the United Nations.”
