...You want to know what's wrong with our waterfront? It's the love of a lousy buck. It's making the love of the lousy buck -- the cushy job -- more important than the love of man! It's forgettin' that every fellow down here is your brother in Christ! But remember, Christ is always with you -- Christ is in the shape-up. He's in the hatch. He's in the union hall. He's kneeling right here beside Dugan. And He's saying with all of you, if you do it to the least of mine, you do it to me! ...
Destroy:Ideas is a concept I developed because in my life I've found that people are more important than ideas, and often times we find ourselves putting so much weight in our ideas that we forget about the people. I'm trying to get around to putting people before ideas. So I'm destroying ideas and making people matter.
