Quote 7: “And, for this, at the end of the week, he will carry home three dollars to his family, being his pay at the rate of five cents per hour-just about his proper share of the million and three quarters of children who are now engaged in earning their livings in the United States.” Chapter 6, pg. 85

Quote 15: “They put him in a place where the snow could not beat in, where the cold could not eat through his bones; they brought him food and drink-why, in the name of heaven, if they must punish him, did they not put his family in jail and leave him outside-why could they find no better way to punish him than to leave three weak women and six helpless children to starve and freeze? Chapter 16, pg. 191

Quote 16: “He has no wit to trace back the social crime to its far sources-he could not say that it is the thing men have called “the system” that is crushing him to the earth; that it is the packers, his masters, who has dealt their brutal will to him from the seat of justice.” Chapter 16, pg. 191

Quote 17: “Jurgis could see all the truth now-could see himself through the whole long course of events, the victim of ravenous vultures that had torn into his vitals and devoured him; of fiends that had racked and tortured him, mocking him, meantime, jeering in his face.” Chapter 18, pg. 212

Quote 18: “The word rang through him like the sound of a bell, echoing in the far depths of him, making forgotten chords to vibrate, old shadowy fears to stir-fears of the dark, fears of the void, fears of annihilation. She was dead! She was dead!” Chapter 19, pg. 227

Quote 24: “All day long the blazing midsummer sun beat down upon that square mile of abominations: upon tens of thousands of cattle crowded into pens whose wooden floors stank and steamed contagion; upon bare, blistering, cinder-strewn railroad tracks and huge blocks of dingy meat factories, whose labyrinthine passages defied a breath of fresh air to penetrate them; and there are not merely rivers of hot blood and carloads of moist flesh, and rendering-vats and soup cauldrons, glue-factories and fertilizer tanks, that smelt like the craters of hell-there are also tons of garbage festering in the sun, and the greasy laundry of the workers hung out to dry and dining rooms littered with food black with flies, and toilet rooms that are open sewers.” Chapter 26, pg. 328

It is to you that I come with my message of salvation, it is to you that I appeal.” Chapter 28, pg. 361

I don’t have the book anymore, but in a history paper I wrote just this year I used a quote describing the disgusting condition of the work place. It talked about the diseased animals that were being slaughtered and just some of the grosser things. I used it to talk about the horrific conditions that poor immigrants were expected to work in but it could be used to talk about industrialization and its corruption or social injustice. Sorry I don’t have an exact quote but there are several times when the conditions are described and pretty much any of those can be used. The only other thing I can think about that you could use for a quote is to find one dealing with Ona and the fact that she was forced to sleep with her boss in order to keep her job. That definitely relates to the social injustice. Hope this helps some!

It was the incarnation of blind insensenate Greed. It was a monster devouring with a thousand mouths, trampling with a thousand hoofs: it was the Great Butcher — it was the spirit of Capitalism made flesh.

He is a very inspired man. His violin is out of tune, and there is no rosin on his bow, but he is a very inspired man.

There is no wilderness where I can hide from these things, there is no haven where I can escape them; though I travel to the ends of the earth, I find the same accursed system – I find that all the fair and noble impulses of humanity, the dreams of poets and the agonies of martyrs, are shackled and bound in the service of organized and predatory Greed!
