    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)

    The history of this country was made largely by people who wanted to be left alone. Those who could not thrive when left to themselves never felt at ease in America.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    The history of all countries shows that the working class exclusively by its own effort is able to develop only trade-union consciousness.
