Quotes 

• Brad Adams : Joe, our ideas. They're not enough.

  Joe London : I know. You're up against it. Things look different, I guess, when you are on the other side of the fence.

  Brad Adams : A lot of people are going to get hurt. I've been thinking about you and Mary.

  Joe London : It's not your fault. Last hired, first fired. That's labor's rules.

  Ruth Adams : Oh, no, Joe. Brad, there must be some other way.

  Joe London : No. Well, Dan was right. Brad's got to lay off half the workers. Don't cha?

  Brad Adams : Worse than that, Joe. The warehouse is jammed with stuff we can't sell. We're losing money in everything we make. I've got to close down the plant and lay off everybody.

  Joe London : Everybody?

  Joe London : Everybody.
