I would say the issue for the labor movement in the United States is not structural... there is no correlation between the success of workers and how the labor movement is structured.

College is about three things: homework, fun, and sleep...but you can only choose two.

The question is always 'What is the role of a labor movement?' How much is about collective bargaining, how much is about social change for all workers?

Employers need to recognize that the world has changed and there are people who would like to help them provide solution in ways that are new, modern and that add value to companies.

The AFL-CIO is a structure that divides workers' strength by allowing each union to organize in any industry, then bargain on its own, even when workers share a common employer.

Once, a union job at GM or AT&T was a bridge to success. Now, a nonunion Wal-Mart job is a bridge to nowhere.

Unions should not be lapdogs to a political party, they should be watchdogs for their members interests.

Workers of the world unite, it's not just a slogan anymore.

I was too much of a victim of the model I created. I tried Change to Win and helping Obama, and then I just ran out of Andy Stern ideas.

The union movement has been the best middle class job creating program that America has ever had, and it doesn't cost the government a dime.

When I left SEIU, we had started this quality public service agenda to say to our members what I think the United Auto Workers learned: that quality is our only job security in the long run.

Love lifts you up. Love is giving and kindness. Love is encouraging. Love is healing. If these things do not surround you, you are in the wrong relationship.

Karma assures justice for all.

I do not think that any thorough-going modification of college curriculum would be possible without a modification of the methods of instruction.

Did you never run for shelter in a storm, and find fruit which you expected not? Did you never go to God for safeguard, driven by outward storms, and there find unexpected fruit?

Different hearts beat on different strings

Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.

The very purpose of existence is to reconcile the glowing opinion we hold of ourselves with the appalling things that other people think about us.

Sin is not simply making bad choices or mistakes. Sin is having the desire in our hearts to do the will of the enemy of God.

I like to turn things upside down, to watch pictures and situations from another perspective.
