Famous quotes containing the words sons and/or factory:
“When sons grow up, they listen not to their fathers, nor do daughters to their mothers.”
—Chinese proverb.
“I cannot believe that our factory system is the best mode by which men may get clothing. The condition of the operatives is becoming every day more like that of the English; and it cannot be wondered at, since, as far as I have heard or observed, the principal object is, not that mankind may be well and honestly clad, but, unquestionably, that the corporations may be enriched.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
