“And so the house came to be haunted by the unspoken phrase: There must be more money! There must be more money! The children could hear it all the time though nobody said it aloud. They heard it at Christmas, when the expensive and splendid toys filled the nursery. Behind the shining modern rocking-horse, behind the smart doll's house, a voice would start whispering: "There must be more money! There must be more money!" And the children would stop playing, to listen for a moment. They would look into each other's eyes, to see if they had all heard. And each one saw in the eyes of the other two that they too had heard. "There must be more money! There must be more money!”

“It will cost the State money, it will cost industry money, it will cost the mills and mines money, and it will cost municipalities money but it is money that must be spent and must be spent now because we face a problem that must be solved now.

“Time is more value than money. You can get more money, but you cannot get more time.”

“When the women get the vote, we'll spend more money on the children.”
