“Things are so busy and so quick, and there’s so much going on, you have to realise the time when you have to take a step back, take a breath and really think back to where you come from. I’m from a very, very rural place. There’s really nobody out there, just roads and farms. I had a long transition to get to where I am now. I moved away when I was young, when I was about 19. I’d literally come from an area with dirt roads and stuff like that, right to the centre of a city of about five million people. It’s been great. I’m based in New York and every day it's amazing.” PeopleThinkingLongYoungStuffCitiesStepsMillionsFiveNew YorkAreasBreathsMovedBusyRealisingFarmsTransitionDirtCentreWhere You ComeDirt Roads Author:Diego Klattenhoff
“Coolidge has the best idea on this farm relief. He said, 'Farmers, you are in a hole. I can't help you, but I will get in with you.' He did. That made it fine so the farmers were satisfied as long as Coolidge was going to get in with them.” LongMadeSaidI CanIdeasHelpingFineHolesSatisfiedMade ItReliefFarmsFarmersAgriculture Book:Radio broadcasts of Will Rogers Source: Radio broadcasts of Will Rogers
“Only a work democracy can create the foundation of genuine freedom. Long experience in sociological disputes leads me to expect that a great many people will take offense at the disclosure of this miscalculation. It makes the highest demands on people's will to veracity; it puts a heavy burden on everyday living; it places all social responsibility on those who work, be it in the factory, in the office, on the farm, in the laboratory, or wherever.” PeopleLongSocialResponsibilityDemocracyDemandOfficeHighestFoundationEverydayBurdenHeavyGenuineGreat MenFarmsFactoriesOffenseSocial ResponsibilityDisputesLaboratoryLeading MeDisclosureSociologicalVeracityHeavy BurdensMiscalculationsEveryday Living Author:Wilhelm Reich
