Mary Harris Jones

Sit down and read. Educate yourself for the coming conflicts.

My address is like my shoes. It travels with me.

Reformation, like education, is a journey, not a destination.

I'm not afraid of wanting money at all. Money will give me more power to do things that are truer to my spirit than what I'm already doing.

A man of letters never objects to a slum. He sharpens his pen there.

I am not afraid of the pen, or the scaffold, or the sword. I will tell the truth wherever I please.
