Cesar Chavez Quote
Cesar Chavez: You know, when the Chinese came to America to build the railroads, you know what they demanded of their overseers?
Fernando Chavez: [nonchalantly]No.
Cesar Chavez: Food. Good food. And enough time to enjoy it. And if the owners skimped on that, they wouldn't lift a finger. Give the Chinese a good meal every day, and they could build the infrastructure of a continent. Their meal is what gave their lives their dignity. And to them, dignity was more important than money.
