Slave

Famous quotes containing the word slave:

    Do not discourage your children from hoarding, if they have a taste to it; whoever lays up his penny rather than part with it for a cake, at least is not the slave of gross appetite; and shows besides a preference always to be esteemed, of the future to the present moment.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    It’s not the suffering of birth, death, love that the young reject, but the suffering of endless labor without dream, eating the spare bread in bitterness, being a slave without the security of a slave.
    Meridel Le Sueur (b. 1900)

    Freedom in capitalist society always remains about the same as it was in ancient Greek republics: Freedom for slave owners.
    Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870–1924)
