引述 :『In this new (2009) edition of Why Unions Matter, Michael D. Yates shows why unions still matter. Unions mean better pay, benefits, and working conditions for their members; they force employers to treat employees with dignity and respect; and at their best, they provide a way for workers to make society both more democratic and egalitarian. Yates uses simple language, clear data, and engaging examples to show why workers need unions, how unions are formed, how they operate, how collective bargaining works, the role of unions in politics, and what unions have done to bring workers together across the divides of race, gender, religion, and sexual orientation. 』

引述 :『為了交出拼治安的漂亮成績，政府總是拿最弱勢的逃跑外勞做犧牲品，卻未曾探究他們「逃跑」的原因，讓人不禁想問：這制度，還要製造多少像阿娥一樣的悲劇？』

引述 :『我們不曾聽說白領「老外」逃跑，為什麼藍領「外勞」逃跑人數已逾九萬名？就業安定基金來自聘僱外勞的雇主每月繳交2000元／5000元的就安費，累積至今數百億，勞委會卻拿來：辦外勞居留證的IC卡，全面通緝外勞行蹤；獎勵警察全面緝捕逃跑外勞，捉一個賞2000！每個外事警察都有「獵人頭」的配額，逃跑外勞為躲警察，被射殺住院的、跳窗摔死的……血淚斑斑！ 』

引述 :『問及她既在勞工局接Case工作、又在勞工局管轄範圍內從事紀錄片的拍攝，有沒有影響到她拍攝取材的限制？她坦然地表示「絕對會有」，一來因勞工局之便而有外人無法深入探訪的環境，二來她也無法出賣高捷方面對她的信任。不過，若就臨行前，吳孟如對記者的叮嚀︰「我不願意看到的是將高捷政治化，因為那無助於高捷泰工的工作條件的討論與改善。」至少這樣的影像呈現，提醒了許多工運團體在爭取勞動權的操作上，別流於成為另一只政爭的工具。』
