ty roofless. What is the use of saying, 'Let
them perish'? What is the use of trying to rebuild the world that way?
You can't do it, even if you set fire to the world and start your
endless war of human murder.

"If you were the majority you would not need to do it. But you are the
minority, and there are too many against you.

"Only by infinite pains and patience can you alter the social
structure to better it. Cautious and wary replacement is the only
method, not exploding a mine beneath the keystone.

"The world has won out from barbarism so far. It must continue to
emerge by degrees. And if beliefs and laws and customs be obsolete,
only by general agreement may they be modified without danger to all.
Not the violent revolt of one or a dozen or a thousand can alter what

"I have stood here night after night proclaiming that my personal
conception of right and wrong, of truth and falsehood, of law and

disregard any other opinion.

"What I preached was Bolshevism! And I was such a fool I didn't know
