We Are Organizers At Heart.

Concentration Is Inspiration. You Must Be Completely Overtaken By Your Work And Your Subject. Only Then Do All Your Influences And Experience Come Up To The Surface.

Non-violence Is A Very Powerful Weapon. Most People Don't Understand The Power Of Non-violence And Tend To Be Amazed By The Whole Idea. Those Who Have Been Involved In Bringing About Change And See The Difference Between Violence And Non-violence Are Firmly Committed To A Lifetime Of Non-violence, Not Because It Is Easy Or Because It Is Cowardly, But Because It Is An Effective And Very Powerful Way.

In Some Cases Non-violence Requires More Militancy Than Violence.

The Picket Line Is The Best Place To Train Organizers. One Day On The Picket Line Is Where A Man Makes His Commitment. The Longer On The Picket Line, The Stronger The Commitment. A Lot Of Workers Think They Make Their Commitment By Walking Off The Job When Nobody Sees Them. But You Get A Guy To Walk Off The Field When His Boss Is Watching And, In Front Of The Other Guys, Throw Down His Tools And March Right To The Picket Line, That Is The Guy Who Makes Our Strike. The Picket Line Is A Beautiful Thing Because It Makes A Man More Human.

...there Has To Be Someone Who Is Willing To Do It, Who Is Willing To Take Whatever Risks Are Required. I Don't Think It Can Be Done With Money Alone. The Person Has To Be Dedicated To The Task. There Has To Be Some Other Motivation.
