“My business is stanching blood and feeding fainting men; my post the open field between the bullet and the hospital.

I make gruelnot speeches; I write letters home for wounded soldiers, not political addresses.”
—Clara Barton (18211912)
“... no one knows anything about a strike until he has seen it break down into its component parts of human beings.”
