I've spent my whole working life standing up for workers. Didn't matter if it was the two trapped miners at Beaconsfield or professional netballers or indeed factory workers or construction workers.

Bill Shorten

Parking Reform Made Easy provides both a theoretical framework and practical methods for reforming parking requirements. By giving planners a sound basis for developing reforms, Richard Willson remedies the problem that many planners feel unqualified to challenge and change long-standing minimum parking requirements.

Donald Shoup

The most practical information about life is sneered at by social planners.

James Cook

True idealists are rare; they are the dedicated workers, who would, if need be, die at the stake.

Henry Williamson

Some contractors force workers to provide paybacks to keep their jobs. Others intentionally misclassify workers in order to underpay them - by, for example, paying a skilled construction worker as a general laborer.

Letitia James

There are dreamers and there are planners; the planners make their dreams come true.

Edwin Louis Cole

Idealists, workers of thought, unite to show how inspiration and genius walk in step with the progress of the machine, of aircraft, of industry, of trade, of the sciences, of electricity.

Filippo Tommaso Marinetti

Creating jobs for your country's workers is about much more than ensuring that the balance sheets of your country's companies are strong, or stimulating domestic demand. It is about figuring out how your country's workers fit into the global economy.

Jan Schakowsky

If the workers don't keep themselves current - with some assistance and guidance from their employers - then the workers who are in the legacy roles will have to be removed. That's what's so difficult.

Lewis Schiff

I've tried digital planners and fancy planners and date books galore, but my tried and true is actually just a large spiral-bound notebook.

Rachel Hollis

The Cabal is of two kinds, theoretical and practical, with the practical Cabala, which is engaged in the construction of talismans and amulets, we have nothing to do. The theoretical is divided into the lineal and dogmatic. The dogmatic is nothing more than the summary of the metaphysical doctrine taught by the Cabalist doctors. It is, in other words, the system of the Jewish philosophy.

Albert Mackey

Which is more remarkable fact about America: that millionaires are idealists or idealists become millionaires.

Ludwig Boltzmann

Internationalism means that we can see into the dark corners of the world, and hold those companies to account when they are devastating forests or employing children as bonded labour. Globalization is the complete opposite, its rules pit country against country and workers against workers in the blinkered pursuit of international competitiveness.

Anita Roddick

Ninety per cent of my family are hairdressers, and the other 10% are construction workers.
