Factories Quotes - Page 15

• No debemos olvidar que cuando nos alejamos cojeando afligidos por el espíritu, no es a las puertas de la fábrica o a los pasos corporativos a donde peregrinamos. En cambio, vamos al mar por su sal. Encontramos sombra bajo los sicomoros de las grandes avenidas. O vamos a los ríos donde el agua nos habla modestamente de su propia enfermedad.

• I often get the question from people, "well how can you sell luxury at that price?" What I'm explaining to everyone is I'm still paying the same factory cost as I paid when they were $800. I pay the same as my competitors who are in the luxury space pay, I just don't mark them up as much because I haven't put them in a wholesale channel. I don't have to put that extra margin on them.

• Mi primer libro favorito fue ¿Eres mi madre? Un libro ilustrado sobre un pájaro perdido. Después, mis favoritos cambiaban casi todos los años. Me encantaba todo lo que escribía Roald Dahl, pero mi favorito era probablemente Charlie y la fábrica de chocolate. Una bibliotecaria me regaló una primera edición de ese libro, que guardo como un tesoro.

• My grandfather was a really, really tough no-nonsense factory worker who emigrated from Ireland in about 1900 to Bridgeport, Conn. He had a big effect on me. Those guys who took a great leap out into what they knew not were the ones who were the real stars, the real heroes.

• In the beginning I was really, really lean. For the longest time I did it all. I played every hat. I was in the factory, doing the graphic design, the photography, the selling - literally everything. I saved money doing what I could myself. It was hard but I learned. I learned that nobody's better than you to get your business off the ground. The experience you get is priceless.

• Schools in which students and teachers relate as partners-where Rosenberg's Nonviolent Communication is part of every interaction are communities of learning, rather than top-down, impersonal factories. Young people begin to see school as a safe and exciting place of exploration where they can share feelings and ideas, and where each child is recognized, valued and nurtured.

• Esta generación ha alterado la composición de la atmósfera a escala mundial mediante materiales radiactivos y un aumento constante del dióxido de carbono procedente de la quema de combustibles fósiles. Cuencas aéreas regionales enteras, entornos de plantas de cultivo y cuencas fluviales están cargados de materiales nocivos. Los vehículos de motor y las calefacciones domésticas, los vertederos municipales y las fábricas arrojan continuamente contaminantes al aire que respiramos. Cada día se añaden a la atmósfera casi 50.000 toneladas de dióxido de azufre, desagradable y a veces venenoso, y nuestros automóviles producen casi 300.000 toneladas de otros contaminantes.

• My husband had a clothing store in Paris, and I had his factory make specifically for me something similar to the one I was looking for. We made it in different colours, and decided to sell them in the store...and in a day, they were sold out! This sweater became later known as the "poor boy sweater" and it ended up making the cover of Elle magazine, and in a day, I became the "Queen of knit", without knowing anything about knitting!

• The external appearance of any construction projects that are created during the time of the National Socialist Reich must take on the sensibility of our time. Factories are the workplaces of our National Socialist racial comrades. Streets and highways carry the name of the Führer. Settlements today are not isolated communities, but rather parts of greater city-construction plans. Every work site must be properly located within its neighborhood and surrounding setting (i.e., the natural world).

• World War II put feminism on hold for a long time; the men went away to fight, a lot of women in those years got jobs both in teaching and in factories - at all social levels - which they enjoyed very much. A lot of them were quite happy during the war.

• Cooking is work that is traditionally done by working-class people. The work itself is not glamorous. It's repetitive, and it's a lot closer to factory work than art, whatever level you're doing it at. Certainly chefs are used to living like rock 'n' rollers to some extent, inasmuch as we get a lot of those fringe benefits without having to learn how to play guitar.
