Famous quotes containing the word organization:

    “Politics, as a practise, whatever its professions, has always been the systematic organization of hatreds.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “I will never accept that I got a free ride. It wasn’t free at all. My ancestors were brought here against their will. They were made to work and help build the country. I worked in the cotton fields from the age of seven. I worked in the laundry for twenty- three years. I worked for the national organization for nine years. I just retired from city government after twelve-and-a- half years.”
    —Johnnie Tillmon (b. 1926)

    “The methods by which a trade union can alone act, are necessarily destructive; its organization is necessarily tyrannical.”
    —Henry George (1839–1897)
