Jimmy Hoffa quotes about
needs lawyer needed
In the old days all you needed was a handshake. Nowadays you need forty lawyers.
heart home men
Don't let any man into your cab, your home, or your heart, unless he's a friend of labor.
fire challenges trying

strong politics weak
I've told you before and I'll tell you again. The strong survive and the weak disappear. We do not intend to disappear.
