"Too long have the workers
 of the world waited for some Moses
 to lead them out of bondage."

" I would not lead you out if I could;
 for if you could be led out,
 you could be led back again."

" I would have you make up your minds 
there is nothing that you cannot do  
                       for yourselves "
                             E Debs

"shall the people rule ? "

 " there is more virtue in the masses then
ever finds expression 
               through their representatives.."

"the people elect representatives
not to think for them
                    but to act for them"
