Elizabeth Gaskell Quotes

A Man Leads A Dree Life Who's Not I' Th' Union. But Once I' The' Union, His Interests Are Taken Care On Better Nor He Could Do It For Himsel', Or By Himsel', For That Matter. It's The Only Way Working Men Can Get Their Rights, By All Joining Together. More The Members, More Chance For Each One Separate Man Having Justice Done Him. Government Takes Care O' Fools And Madmen; And If Any Man Is Inclined To Do Himsel' Or His Neighbour A Hurt, It Puts A Bit Of A Check On Him, Whether He Likes It Or No. That's All We Do I' Th' Union. We Can't Clap Folk Into Prison; But We Can Make A Man's Life So Heavy To Be Borne, That He's Obliged To Come In, And Be Wise And Helpful In Spite Of Himself.
