"I am not a Labor Leader; I do not want you to follow me or anyone else; if you are looking for a Moses to lead you out of this capitalist wilderness, you will stay right where you are. I would not lead you into the promised land if I could, because if I led you in, SOMEONE ELSE WOULD LEAD YOU OUT. You must use your heads as well as your hands, and get yourself out of your present condition" [stress added].
