Should Stifling Labor

More From John D. Rockefeller

Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.
Work Independent Labor Day
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
Capital is a result of labor, and is used by labor to assist it in further production. labor is the active and initial force, and labor is therefore the employer of capital.
Used Results Force
Labor is superior to capital and precedes capital. without labor, there is no capital.
Labor Superiors
All that serves labor serves the nation. all ^ that harms labor is treason to america. no line can be drawn between these two. if any man tells you he loves america, yet hates labor, he is a liar. if any man tells you he trusts america, yet fears labor, he is a fool. there is no america without labor, and to fleece the one is to rob the other.

Do you know when you cross against traffic? you look down the street and see a car coming, but you know you can get across before it gets to you. so even though there’s a don’t walk sign, you cross anyway. and there’s always a split second when you turn and see that car coming, and you know that if you don’t continue moving, it will all be over. that’s how i feel a lot of the time. i know i’ll make it across. i always make it across. but the car is always there, and i always stop to watch it coming.

Similar Quotes
Absolute space, that is to say, the mark to which it would be necessary to refer the earth to know whether it really moves, has no objective existence.... the two propositions: "the earth turns round" and "it is more convenient to suppose the earth turns round" have the same meaning; there is nothing more in the one than in the other.

When obstacles have been put in front of me, i just get around them and move past them and laugh at them.
Moving Past Laughing
So let us persevere. peace need not be impracticable, and war need not be inevitable. by defining our goal more clearly, by making it seem more manageable and less remote, we can help all peoples to see it, to draw hope from it, and to move irresistibly toward it.
Peace War Moving
Pain reaches the heart with electrical speed, but truth moves to the heart as slowly as a glacier.
