“Now, just think, to accuse me of such a crime. Think of it! I, who have for twenty-five years single- handed struggled against the invasion of the Russian Government into American money markets, and to this day stave them off. Think of it! Who, as I, have been foremost in the past for agitation and insisted to the President of the United States; as some of you must know, that our treaty with Russia must be abrogated.”
-- Jacob Schiff -
“If the Czar will not accord our people these desired liberties, then a revolution will bring about a republic which will assure us our rights.”
