Slave Owners

Famous quotes containing the words slave and/or owners:

    The moral equalizes all; enriches, empowers all. It is the coin which buys all, and which all find in their pocket. Under the whip of the driver, the slave shall feel his equality with saints and heroes.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The work of the miner has its unavoidable incidents of discomfort and danger, and these should not be increased by the neglect of the owners to provide every practicable safety appliance. Economies which involve a sacrifice of human life are intolerable.
    Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
