Quotes Tagged “Progressive Era”

Randolph Bourne
“ Really to believe in human nature while striving to know the thousand forces that warp it from its ideal development, - to call for and expect much from men and women, and not to be disappointed and embittered if they fall short, - to try to do good with people rather than to them, - this is my religion on its human side ”
― Randolph Bourne, Youth and life

“ The question will arise and arise in your day, though perhaps not fully in mine: Which shall rule — wealth or man? Which shall lead — money or intellect? Who shall fill public stations — educated and patriotic freemen or the feudal serfs of corporate capital? ”
― Edward G. Ryan
