Quote of the Day

“Work is not just another object, but rather the expression and condition of spiritual and social development of man. When we forget about this primary relationship of work with man’s dignity, it loses its cultural richness and moral value...When we take seriously the importance of work in the life of man, we cannot help but affirm that it is morally unjust and culturally poor for a society not to react in response to the scourge of unemployment and poverty or for it to accept inhumane conditions or take advantage of the employment of minors. To teach people to work is a sign of a wise society."

~ Archbishop Jose Maria Arancedo of Santa Fe de la Vera Cruz, Buenos Aires, on the feast of St. Joseph, the Worker
