Labor Day Hurricane

Famous quotes containing the words labor, day and/or hurricane:

    The classroom, with all its limitations, remains a location of possibility. In that field of possibility we have the opportunity to labor for freedom, to demand of ourselves and our comrades, an openness of mind and heart that allows us to face reality even as we collectively imagine ways to move beyond boundaries, to transgress. This is education as the practice of freedom.
    bell hooks (b. c. 1955)

    But one day he met a man who was a whole lot badder,
    And now he’s dead, and we ain’t none the sadder.
    —Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Staid middle age loves the hurricane passions of opera.
