More from the book

God Bless the OLD USA
Alinsky states

If in organizing the organizer wins more followers by loosing an action, that that is a win and he will lose the action.(paraphrase)

Also " change comes from power, power comes from organization,in order to act people must get together"

"Power and organization are one in the same"

"The organizer simultaneously carries on many functions as he analyzes,attacks,and disrupts the prevailing power pattern"

" the first step in community organization is community disorganization" "unless there is controversy people are not concerned enough to act"

" an organizer must stir up dissatisfaction and discontent; provide a Chanel they can pour ANGRILY pour their pour their frustrations.

As an organizer "your function-to agitate to the point of conflict"
