Famous quotes containing the words drive and/or methods:

    You may drive out nature with a pitchfork, yet she’ll be constantly running back.
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)

    I think it is a wise course for laborers to unite to defend their interests.... I think the employer who declines to deal with organized labor and to recognize it as a proper element in the settlement of wage controversies is behind the times.... Of course, when organized labor permits itself to sympathize with violent methods or undue duress, it is not entitled to our sympathy.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
