Relief Effort

Famous quotes containing the words relief and/or effort:

    “Although its growth may seem to have been slow, it is to be remembered that it is not a shrub, or plant, to shoot up in the summer and wither in the frosts.

    —Clara Barton (1821–1912)

    “The history of all countries shows that the working class exclusively by its own effort is able to develop only trade-union consciousness.”
