"We are but warriors for the working-day."
Henry V, Act IV, Scene 3, Line 109.
I generally don't like re-using quotes for WSTFTD, but I love this one, and proudly post it again.

Several years ago, back when WSTFTD was a daily, I posted a pic of Jennifer Lopez, in all her callipygian glory, with the Shakespeare quote: "Your bum is the greatest thing about you."

My mother and my sister are both staunch pro-unionists, since they both teach public school; and I was a member of SEIU when I was a Medical Assistant.
Go unions!
