“I am opposing a social order in
which it is possible for one man who does absolutely nothing that is useful to
amass a fortune of hundreds of millions of dollars, while millions of men and
women who work all the days of their lives secure barely enough for a wretched
existence.”

“In every age it has been the
tyrant, the oppressor and the exploiter who has wrapped himself in the cloak of
patriotism, or religion, or both to deceive and overawe the People."

“Your Honor, years ago I recognized
my kinship with all living beings, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit
better than the meanest on earth. I said then, and I say now, that while there
is a lower class, I am in it, and while there is a criminal element I am of it,
and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.”
