Union Road

Famous quotes containing the words union and/or road:

    Without the power of the Industrial Union behind it, Democracy can only enter the State as the victim enters the gullet of the Serpent.
    James Connolly (1870–1916)

    A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.
    Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
