Workers of The World

Famous quotes containing the words workers of, workers and/or world:

    Workers of the world forgive me.
    —Graffito on the bust of Karl Marx in Bucharest. Quoted in Times (London, May 4, 1990)

    It is ... pathetic to observe the complete lack of imagination on the part of certain employers and men and women of the upper-income levels, equally devoid of experience, equally glib with their criticism ... directed against workers, labor leaders, and other villains and personal devils who are the objects of their dart-throwing. Who doesn’t know the wealthy woman who fulminates against the “idle” workers who just won’t get out and hunt jobs?
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    Some natural tears they dropped, but wiped them soon;
    The world was all before them, where to choose
    Their place of rest, and Providence their guide;
    They, hand in hand, with wandering steps and slow
    Through Eden took their solitary way.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
