Famous quotes containing the words mealy and/or machine:

    I never see any difference in boys. I only know two sorts of boys. Mealy boys and beef-faced boys.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    Goodbye, boys; I’m under arrest. I may have to go to jail. I may not see you for a long time. Keep up the fight! Don’t surrender! Pay no attention to the injunction machine at Parkersburg. The Federal judge is a scab anyhow. While you starve he plays golf. While you serve humanity, he serves injunctions for the money powers.
    Mother Jones (1830–1930)
