“The free-trade idea, logically applied, will abolish usury; and with usury will disappear the chief bone of contention between labor and capital. But, just at this point, free-traders go over to the enemy; and many writers on political economy, in flat contradiction of the essential principles of that science, have made elaborate arguments to prove self-government in finance, impossible! What shall we think of men who, having dethroned kings, demolished popes, destroyed slave oligarchies and assailed tariff monopoly, advise submission to the most oppressive and dishonest of despotisms, Usury?” ThinkingMenMadeIdeasSelfGovernmentPoliticalEnemyPrinciplesEconomyImpossibleKingsProveEssentialsArgumentLaborTradeSlaveBonesDisappearFinanceDestroyedChiefsContradictionFlatsPopeSubmissionMonopolyAdviseDespotismAbolishThink Of MeContentionFree TradeTradersOligarchySelf-governmentTariffsPolitical EconomyUsuryLabor And Capital Author:Ezra Heywood
“I shall never pay a dollar of your unjust penalty. All the stock in trade I possess is a $10,000 debt, incurred by publishing my paper - The Revolution - four years ago, the sole object of which was to educate all women to do precisely as I have done, rebel against your man-made, unjust, unconstitutional forms of law, that tax, fine, imprison and hang women, while they deny them the right of representation in the government... And I shall earnestly and persistently continue to urge all women to the practical recognition of the old revolutionary maxim, that "Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God."” MenMadeDoneGovernmentFormLawPayObjectsRevolutionFineTaxesPaperTradeDollarsDenyDebtPracticalsTyrannyResistanceRecognitionObedienceRevolutionaryUrgesRebelEducateSolePublishingPenaltiesRepresentationUnjustMaximsUnconstitutionalObedience To God Author:Susan B.

“Substantial progress was made in spreading our foreign trade to other areas. Our total trade with Northwest Europe in the first 8 months of last year was 42.3 per cent above the corresponding period the year previous, and our total trade with Asia was up 13.5 per cent.

“You all know I have terminal cancer—and I have a lot of it. But what you may not know is that stress induces its spread and induces its activity. Stress may even bring it on. Yet stress is the fuel of the activist. This activist loves Oregon more than he loves life. I know I can't have both very long. The trade-offs are all right with me.

“In many ways, large profits are even more insidious than large losses in terms of emotional destabilization. I think it's important not to be emotionally attached to large profits. I've certainly made some of my worst trades after long periods of winning. When you're on a big winning streak, there's a temptation to think that you're doing something special, which will allow you to continue to propel yourself upward. You start to think that you can afford to make shoddy decisions. You can imagine what happens next. As a general rule, losses make you strong and profits make you weak.” ThinkingWayLongMadeImportantBigsHappensNextWinningStrongTermLossDecisionImagineWorstSpecialEmotionalPeriodsWeakTradeProfitTemptationSomething SpecialStreaksInsidious Author:William Eckhardt
