Edwin Hubbel Chapin Quotes About Labor

• A thousand wheels of labor are turned by dear affections, and kept in motion by self-sacrificing endurance; and the crowds that pour forth in the morning and return at night are daily procession of love and duty.

• No cabe duda de la nobleza esencial de aquel hombre que vierte en la vida el honesto vigor de su trabajo, frente a aquellos que componen la plumosa espuma de la moda que recorre Broadway; que consideran que las insignias del honor consisten en la riqueza y la indolencia; y que, ignorando la historia familiar, pintan blasones para cubrir los delantales de cuero de sus abuelos.

  "Humanity in the city". Book by Edwin Hubbell Chapin, 1854.

• Labor, with its coarse raiment and its bare right arm, has gone forth in the earth, achieving the truest conquests and rearing the most durable monuments. It has opened the domain of matter and the empire of the mind. The wild beast has fled before it, and the wilderness has fallen back.... its triumphal march is the progress of civilization.

• Why, man of idleness, labor has rocked you in the cradle, and nourished your pampered life; without it, the woven silk and the wool upon your bank would be in the shepherd's fold. For the meanest thing that ministers to human want, save the air of heaven, man is indebted to toil; and even the air, in God's wise ordination, is breathed with labor.
