My father was brought up in an orphanage in the Catskills. He was a factory worker. And because his family wasn't there for him family was everything. We could disagree inside the house but outside the house it was us against the world. So when I became a drag actor he looked sideways but said okay.

My restaurants are never opened on Thanksgiving I want my staff to spend time with their family if they can. My feeling is if I can't figure out how to make money the rest of the year so that my workers can enjoy the holidays then I don't deserve to be an owner.

Never lose sight of the fact that the most important yardstick of your success will be how you treat other people - your family friends and coworkers and even strangers you meet along the way.

Workers have kept faith in American institutions. Most of the conflicts which have occurred have been when labor's right to live has been challenged and denied.

The Klan had used fear intimidation and murder to brutally oppress over African-Americans who sought justice and equality and it sought to respond to the young workers of the civil rights movement in Mississippi in the same way.

Political Freedom without economic equality is a pretense a fraud a lie and the workers want no lying.

I am going to confront the old-fashioned negative thinking which says that all government needs to do to generate growth is cut worker and environmental protections cut taxes on the rich and stroke 'fat cats' until they purr with pleasure. I'm completely repudiating the idea that government has to get out of the way.

The Recovery plan will put money in the pockets of the American worker create and save millions of new jobs and invest in crucial areas such as health care education energy independence and a new infrastructure.

I belong to the generation of workers who born in the villages and hamlets of rural Poland had the opportunity to acquire education and find employment in industry becoming in the course conscious of their rights and importance in society.

Strong advocacy for education health care and worker safety will be indispensable if they are to get their fair share of President Bush's austere budget for the next fiscal year.

Married or unmarried young or old poet or worker you are still a dreamer and will one time know and feel that your life is but a dream.

My mom's a social worker and my dad works in non-profit organisations.

Mental illness can happen to anybody. You can be a dustman a politician a Tesco worker... anyone. It could be your dad your brother or your aunt.

You want to shut up every Negro who has the courage to stand up and fight for the rights of his people for the rights of workers and I have been on many a picket line for the steelworkers too.

I'd love to be an artist that's multifaceted. At the moment I am not. But wouldn't that be cool if I was like 'Yeah let me pull out my guitar and play you a song.' I would adore that. I am so far not gifted in that way. But I am a very hard worker and a very determined person so who knows?

I never knew any Jews until I got into show business. I've found them to be real smart and good workers.

I want to apologize to all of the people I have let down because of my behavior which has reflected badly on my family friends co-workers business associates and others.

Don't solicit feedback on your product idea or your business just for validation purposes. You want to tell the people who can help move your idea forward but if you're just looking to your friend co-worker husband or wife for validation be careful. It can stop a lot of multimillion-dollar ideas in their tracks in the beginning.

Prosperous farmers mean more employment more prosperity for the workers and the business men of every industrial area in the whole country.

I tried for a while to be an agricultural worker and was hopelessly bored. I would stand around in heaps of manure and sing about the beauty of the work I wasn't doing.

I tried for a while to be an agricultural worker and was hopelessly bored. To me it was meaningless. I would stand around in heaps of manure and sings about the beauty of the work I wasn't doing.

Unfortunately the attitude of many towards the press humanitarians included and especially government workers is often one of suspicion if not outright fear.

In individual industries where female labour pays an important role any movement advocating better wages shorter working hours etc. would not be doomed from the start because of the attitude of those women workers who are not organized.

I love the fact we're still on the road. I was born to be a factory worker really so for me the chance to get on stage at Wembley 30 years after we started is amazing.
