Famous quotes containing the word organization:

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

    “... every woman’s organization recognizes that reformers are far more common than feminists, that the passion to look after your fellow man, and especially woman, to do good to her in your way is far more common than the desire to put into every one’s hand the power to look after themselves.”
    —Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)

    “The art of government is the organization of idolatry. The bureaucracy consists of functionaries; the aristocracy, of idols; the democracy, of idolaters. The populace cannot understand the bureaucracy: it can only worship the national idols.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
