Famous quotes containing the words miners and/or welfare:

    “The miners lost because they had only the constitution. The other side had bayonets. In the end, bayonets always win.”
    —Mother Jones (1830–1930)

    “Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.”
    —Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
