Famous quotes containing the words leaders of the, leaders, labour and/or party:

    “The parallel between antifeminism and race prejudice is striking. The same underlying motives appear to be at work, namely fear, jealousy, feelings of insecurity, fear of economic competition, guilt feelings, and the like. Many of the leaders of the feminist movement in the nineteenth-century United States clearly understood the similarity of the motives at work in antifeminism and race discrimination and associated themselves with the anti slavery movement.”
    —Ashley Montagu (b. 1905)

    “These semi-traitors [Union generals who were not hostile to slavery] must be watched.—Let us be careful who become army leaders in the reorganized army at the end of this Rebellion. The man who thinks that the perpetuity of slavery is essential to the existence of the Union, is unfit to be trusted. The deadliest enemy the Union has is slavery—in fact, its only enemy.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “All’s pathos now. The body that was gross,
    Rank, ravenous, disgusting in the act or in repose,
    All fever, filth and sweat, its bestial strength
    And bestial decay, by pain and labour grows at length
    Fragile and luminous.”
    —Frank Templeton Prince (b. 1912)

    “The newspaper reader says: this party is destroying itself through such mistakes. My higher politics says: a party that makes such mistakes is finished—it has lost its instinctive sureness.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
