Out of labor's struggle in Arizona came better conditions for the workers, who must everywhere, at all times, under advantage and disadvantage work out their own salvation.
I learned in the early part of my career that labor must bear the cross for others' sins, must be the vicarious sufferer for the wrongs that others do.
I believe that movements to suppress wrongs can be carried out under the protection of our flag.
I am Mother Jones. The Government can't take my life and you can't take my arm, but you can take my suitcase.
I am not blind to the shortcomings of our own people.
If they want to hang me, let them. And on the scaffold I will shout Freedom for the working class!
