More From Robert E. Lee

Labor, being itself a commodity, is measured as such by the labor time needed to produce the labor-commodity. and what is needed to produce this labor-commodity? just enough labor time to produce the objects indispensable to the constant maintenance of labor, that is, to keep the worker alive and in a condition to propagate his race. the natural price of labor is no other than the wage minimum.
Race Maintenance Alive

If we want to understand the actions of a man in the early 1860's, put yourself back there in his shoes. as a young man he began piloting steamboats on the mississippi, a job he loved and wanted to do the rest of his life, he said. the civil war ended traffic on the river and his job. he wrote about it in a history of a campaign that failed. he said: "i joined the confederacy, served for two weeks, deserted, and the confederacy fell." his attachment to the southern ideal of slavery does not appear very sturdy.

My mother would never let me in the kitchen. i always wanted to cook, but i was never allowed to. her view of the world was, "cooking is my job, and studying is your job." i think, in retrospect, she didn't like the chaos. she was very orderly. it had to be her way.
