"I may never be happy, but tonight I am content. Nothing more than an empty house, the warm hazy weariness from a day spent setting strawberry runners in the sun, a glass of cool sweet milk, and a shallow dish of blueberries bathed in cream. When one is so tired at the end of a day one must sleep, and at the next dawn there are more strawberry runners to set, and so one goes on living, near the earth. At times like this I'd call myself a fool to ask for more."

Business
"The more the division of labor and the application of machinery extend, the more does competition extend among the workers, the more do their wages shrink together."

"The writer may very well serve a movement of history as its mouthpiece, but he cannot of course create it."
Writing
"The English have all the material requisites for the revolution. What they lack is the spirit of generalization and revolutionary ardour."
Politics
"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people."
