31193 | By DANIEL DE LEON"What Means This Strike?" |
31193 | Do you charge us with wanting to stop the exploitation of children by their parents? |
31193 | Do you mean the property of the petty artisan and of the small peasant, a form of property that preceded the bourgeois form? |
31193 | For how can people, when once they understand their system, fail to see in it the best possible plan of the best possible state of society? |

45827 | But must the transition system therefore be a system of despotic coercion? |
45827 | But why insist on anybody occupying a logical halting place? |
45827 | It is easy to say, Let the occupier be the owner; but the question is, Who is to be the occupier? |

48446 | Do we seem to imply that there is no place in our movement for middle- class intellectuals? |

48446 | Does this sound alarming? |
48446 | May not socialism tend to promote an_ absolute_ excess of population? |

48446 | Will not the inhabitants of each area have to specify some limit beyond which it is undesirable that the population of that area should increase? |
36272 | And the working- man''s house? |
36272 | And what could the organisation and controlling of all labor by the State mean? |
36272 | And why is not the farmer to be sustained by the laborers if that farmer grows the food the laborer requires? |
36272 | Are these to be taken too? |
36272 | But is this true? |
36272 | But what will this mean? |
36272 | But without the capitalist where would be the workshop, the plant, or the raw material? |
36272 | By whom, and in what manner, would the selection of each individual for the pursuit, profession, or handicraft for which he was fittest be determined? |
36272 | Do they ever do any good in the world? |
36272 | If not how is he to be persuaded to put it into fixed capital as factory and plant? |
36272 | If not, why not? |
36272 | In what could it end? |
36272 | It would be better if in co- operative production workmen would be their own capitalists, but surely the owner of capital is entitled to some reward? |
36272 | and his savings in the savings- bank, or in the co- operative store? |
36272 | and if yes, of how much of the fruits of his labor is the laborer to be left by the Socialists in"independent enjoyment"? |
37290 | --("What is Property?" |
37290 | Already in his first work,"What is Property?" |
37290 | Does this mean that after the collapse of the old order of society there will be a new class domination culminating in a new political power? |
37290 | His first work,"What is Property?" |
37290 | How can a class which does not work produce more marvellous works than the whole ancient and mediæval world? |
37290 | How has this complicated variety of human thought and action come about? |
37290 | How is this explained, according to Marx? |
37290 | How is this to be explained? |
37290 | How, then, can the equal rate of profit in the case of capitals of different organic composition be harmonised with the theory of surplus value? |
37290 | I begin,''What is Communism?'' |
37290 | In this book("What is Property?" |
37290 | In what measure will commodities exchange with one another? |
37290 | Is that just?" |
37290 | Labour or Capital? |
37290 | Of critical social writers outside Germany it was Proudhon, in particular, who, in his works"What is Property?" |
37290 | Surplus value or profit? |
37290 | The question he put was no longer"What is the substance of wealth and how is it measured?" |
37290 | The question is: How is that to be done? |
37290 | What happens to them? |
37290 | What happens when the capitalist observes that the extraction of absolute surplus value comes up against an insurmountable obstacle? |
37290 | Whence comes this gain, this increase? |
37290 | but"How is its growth and continual accretions to be explained?" |
35962 | A machine? |
35962 | A piece of real estate? |
35962 | Are these men free, the stoker and his like? |
35962 | How could a man work gratuitously for others when his entire time was barely sufficient to procure him his own necessary means of existence? |
35962 | In what does it consist? |
35962 | Is the holder of a share in a mining or railway company or any sort of stock- company justified in speaking of"his"property? |
35962 | V. What are the results of these revolutions in industrial methods, and what are their tendencies? |
35962 | What are those facts? |
35962 | What can he show if someone asks to see it? |
35962 | What interest has the office- holder of to- day to reduce to the minimum the cost to the State of the services it is his function to perform? |
35962 | What will be the fate of the capitalists? |
35962 | What, then, is the property of"those silent multitudes who toil and struggle so hard for existence and who are in truth the artisans of our greatness? |
35962 | When and how will this happen, if it does happen? |
35962 | Where is his property? |
35962 | Will it not, therefore, be to the interest of all to work, and to try to make the work as little toilsome and as productive as possible? |
35962 | Would there be such a great difference between"his"property, as it now is, and his quota or share in the national property? |
35962 | Would this shareholder be any the less a property- owner, if this undivided whole should become an integrant portion of the national property? |
23574 | Why should not the law run: the whole ancestral series must be reproduced in the development of each individual organism? 23574 [ 38] Are they willing to pay the price? |
23574 | And what Socialist will deny that the chief function of the militant Socialist is to develop class- consciousness in the workers? |
23574 | And what is this class- consciousness which it is our business to preach in season and out of season? |
23574 | Are the"educated and professional"socialists prepared to accept gladly such tremendous changes? |
23574 | But what will be added? |
23574 | Can any one imagine William Morris writing a sentiment so perfectly satisfying to a doll''s sense of beauty? |
23574 | Does not that again agree exactly with the doctrine as I have stated it? |
23574 | Does not that agree exactly with the doctrine as I have stated it? |
23574 | Does the new morality condemn what the old branded as"crimes against property?" |
23574 | Granted the truth of historical materialism, how will future generations look on the literature of to- day and yesterday? |
23574 | How then can we consistently praise or blame any conduct? |
23574 | If one ancestral stage, that of the fish, is reproduced in the young animal belonging to a higher group, why not several?--why not all of them? |
23574 | In the conversations"after the Change"between Melmount, the famous Cabinet Minister, and the pitiful, cowardly, inefficient hero(? |
23574 | May we take you by the hand and call you''Comrade''?" |
23574 | Seeing what is to be done then, seeing what the reward is, Seeing what the terms are,--are you willing to join us? |
23574 | The doubt of the sceptics is: Will the workers create, in the language of economics, an effective demand for Socialism? |
23574 | The second question is: If Socialism is inevitable-- is coming anyhow-- why do you Socialists vex your souls agitating for it? |
23574 | To begin with, what is Labor- Power? |
23574 | What are"wrong,""right,""vice,""virtue,""bad"and"good"? |
23574 | What is the lure of Socialism that is appealing, according to Mr. Street, to more and more of our"educated and professional"people? |
23574 | What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? |
23574 | What serious harm could happen to us then? |
23574 | Why is he so helpless? |

18397 | Who, then, will black the boots under the socialist regime? |
18397 | ), which were formerly private services and properties? |
18397 | And from another point of view, what are the museums if not a form of collective ownership and use of the products of art? |
18397 | But M. Garofalo devotes more attention to the practical(?) |
18397 | For if they should thus quietly await its coming, who among them would survive to prove to the incredulous the truth of their predictions? |
18397 | Has the failure of the exceptional laws against the socialist party in Germany been forgotten? |
18397 | In view of all this, how can the work and the reward be equal for all? |
18397 | Must it now halt and remain stationary in the present state of progress? |
18397 | Of the great mass of the people_ deprived of artistic education_?" |
18397 | Of what public? |
18397 | To act, but_ how_? |
18397 | Upon what point are orthodox political economy and socialism in absolute conflict? |
18397 | What is the use of hypnotizing oneself with phrases about"the propaganda of the deed"and"immediate action?" |
18397 | What, in substance, is the message of socialism? |
18397 | Where will this social revolution start? |
18397 | Why, finally, if we are to consider the amount and the character of this indemnity, should this indemnity be_ total_ and_ absolute_? |
18397 | in the section called"Does the doctrine of Heredity support Aristocracy?" |
38138 | Ought we, then, to consider cheapness as a curse? 38138 What, then, can the unhappy man do? |
38138 | *****"What is competition from the point of view of the workman? |
38138 | And what are the other two workmen to do? |
38138 | But is this the fact? |
38138 | But what if they take to thieving? |
38138 | But why persist in considering the effect of cheapness with a view only to the momentary advantage of the consumer? |
38138 | Can he cultivate the earth for himself? |
38138 | Can he draw water from a spring enclosed in a field? |
38138 | Can he gather the fruits which the hand of God ripens on the path of man? |
38138 | Can he hunt or fish? |
38138 | Can he, dying from the cruel native land where everything is denied him, seek the means of living far from the place where life was given him? |
38138 | Can he, dying of hunger and thirst, stretch out his hands for the charity of his fellow- creatures? |
38138 | Can he, exhausted by fatigue and without a refuge, lie down to sleep upon the pavement of the streets? |
38138 | Does not disorder give birth to poverty, as order and good management give birth to riches? |
38138 | Has the population a limit which it can not exceed? |
38138 | Is it a necessary evil? |
38138 | Is it not the reverse of the fact? |
38138 | Is it not, on the contrary, an irresistible claim upon every human being for protection against suffering? |
38138 | Is not want of combination a source of weakness, as combination is a source of strength? |
38138 | Is the poor man a member of society, or an enemy to it? |
38138 | Is weakness a justification of suffering? |
38138 | It is true the workhouses exist, menacing society with an inundation of beggars-- what way is there of escaping from the cause?... |
38138 | To murder? |
38138 | What is he to do then?" |
38138 | Why should he check the supply, especially as he can throw any loss on the workman whose wages are so pre- eminently liable to rise and fall? |
1187 | Let England''s trade go to pot,he says;"what have I to lose?" |
1187 | Accidents? |
1187 | And how do they fare, these creatures born mediocre, whose heritage is neither brains nor brawn nor endurance? |
1187 | And if so, what is it? |
1187 | And when these things have come to pass, what then? |
1187 | Can sufficient capital be accumulated? |
1187 | Can the common man pause long enough from his undermining labors to answer? |
1187 | Can the common man, or the uncommon men who are allied with him, devise such a law? |
1187 | Divers queries arise: What is the maximum of commercial development the world can sustain? |
1187 | For instance, what would happen tomorrow if one hundred thousand tramps should become suddenly inspired with an overmastering desire for work? |
1187 | How far can it be exploited? |
1187 | How much capital is necessary? |
1187 | How, then, does this process of discouragement operate? |
1187 | If there were constant work at good wages for every man, who would harvest the crops? |
1187 | Or have they already devised one? |
1187 | Since to give least for most, and to give most for least, are universally bad, what remains? |
1187 | So what would happen tomorrow if one hundred thousand tramps acted upon this advice and strenuously and indomitably sought work? |
1187 | The inexorable query arises:_ What is the West to do when it has furnished this machinery_? |
1187 | The question arises:_ Whence came this second army of workers to replace the first army_? |
1187 | The question now is, what will be the outcome of the class struggle? |
1187 | The trust? |
1187 | The trust? |
1187 | What do they do? |
1187 | What if my brother be not so strong as I? |
1187 | What men form it? |
1187 | What when my strength failed? |
1187 | What will be the nature of this new and most necessary law of development? |
1187 | Wherefore should he hunger-- he and his sinless little ones? |
1187 | Why are they there? |
1187 | Why should there be one empty belly in all the world, when the work of ten men can feed a hundred? |
1187 | when I should be unable to work shoulder to shoulder with the strong men who were as yet babes unborn? |
22651 | And how short could the hours of the universal united workers be made? |
22651 | And what of the future? |
22651 | And what part of my wages ought I to pay in return for the part of the fish that I buy? |
22651 | At what price will he now sell? |
22651 | But is the allotment correct and the reward proportioned by his efforts? |
22651 | But suppose that the consumer, for the things which he himself makes and sells, or for the work which he performs, receives more? |
22651 | But suppose they all do? |
22651 | But what about the purple citizens? |
22651 | But what if I catch the fish by using a hired boat and a hired net, or by buying worms as bait from some one who has dug them? |
22651 | But what of that? |
22651 | But what? |
22651 | But why not sell the produce at a higher price? |
22651 | By what means and in what stages can social progress be further accelerated? |
22651 | Can such a thing, or anything conceived in its likeness, possibly work? |
22651 | Granted that it is impossible for the state to take over the whole industry of the nation, does that mean that the present inequalities must continue? |
22651 | How could one face a rà © gime in which the everlasting taskmaster held control? |
22651 | How much of the fish is"produced"by each of the people concerned? |
22651 | How much will this be? |
22651 | How, then, are we to explain this extraordinary discrepancy between human power and resulting human happiness? |
22651 | Idleness and slovenly, careless work will be forbidden? |
22651 | If we shelter_ one_ what is that? |
22651 | Is it fair or unfair, and does it stand for the true measure of social justice? |
22651 | Is it wealth or is it poverty? |
22651 | It is not in itself fallacious; how could it be? |
22651 | Now let me ask in the name of sanity where are such officials to be found? |
22651 | Of the poor what is there to say? |
22651 | One naturally asks, then, To what extent can social reform penetrate into the ordinary operation of industry itself? |
22651 | Or what if I do not fish at all, but get my roast fish by paying for it a part of the wages I receive for working in a saw mill? |
22651 | The point is,_ can_ we make a better one or must we be content with patching up the old one? |
22651 | What else can we do? |
22651 | What is the meaning of it? |
22651 | What is_ quantity_ of labor and how is it measured? |
22651 | What then? |
22651 | What then? |
22651 | What, for example, will be the absolute maximum to which wages in general could be forced? |
22651 | Why should one factory owner not pay ten dollars a day to his hands? |
22651 | Why should they not dawdle at their labor sitting upon the fence in endless colloquy while the harvest rots upon the stalk? |
22651 | Why should they turn up on time for their task? |
22651 | Why should they work, their pay is there"fresh and fresh"? |
22651 | Will they work, or will they lie round in their purple garments and loaf? |
22651 | Work? |

20936 | [ 16] But is it hell? 20936 And now a timid and troubled puritanism makes itself heard: Is there no middle way? 20936 And what does Democracy mean? 20936 And who talked of altering things at one stroke? 20936 Are not all the four quarters of the world to- day talking about Democracy? 20936 Are we to be the labour- serfs and the serfage stud- farm of the world? 20936 Are you so wicked as that, and know it? 20936 At this point we may hear a voice from the average heart of Socialism exclaim:How is this? |
20936 | But have we not been the classic land of social democracy, and have we not become that of Radicalism? |
20936 | But is the spiritual condition of an epoch to be determined by material arrangements? |

30758 | But why should I go while any of my brother clergymen remain? |
30758 | Do the ideas of the ruling class, in any given epoch, correspond with the prevailing mode of economic production? |
30758 | Do you mean the property of the petty artisan and of the small peasant, a form of property that preceded the bourgeois form? |
30758 | Do you not now see with me that the christ of the world is not a conscious, personal god, but an unconscious, impersonal machine? |

30758 | Or do you mean modern bourgeois private property? |
30758 | Sceptics are reverently but earnestly asking: Why does He not keep the sparrows from falling? |
30758 | Since labor power is a commodity, what condition is it subject to? |

30758 | WOULD SOCIALISM CHANGE HUMAN NATURE? |
30758 | What bearing does this have on the materialistic conception of history? |

30758 | What single great idea occurred to both Marx and Engels independently? |
30758 | What was to be done? |
30758 | What, then, is this right? |
30758 | Why all these age- long safeguards against change? |
30758 | Why do social institutions change and not remain fixed? |
30758 | Why not? |
30758 | Why? |
30758 | where dost thou run? |
32644 | I am no Marxistsaid-- guess who? |
32644 | And had not Vico already recognized that Providence does not act in history from without? |
32644 | And in making this study who is there who will refuse to recognize that Thomas More was a heroic soul and a great writer on socialism? |
32644 | And it was born to answer special questions: for example, is interest legitimate? |
32644 | And when did it ever occur to any of their disciples, even of the strictest school, to represent these two thinkers as miracle- workers? |
32644 | And why should it revolt at the pedagogy of the guillotine? |
32644 | And, to speak like the amateurs of high- sounding phrases, will there ever be a humanization of all men? |
32644 | But again, can subjective pedagogy construct of itself a social background upon which all these beautiful things ought to be realized? |
32644 | But whence come and how persist all these inequalities which appear so irrational in the light of a concept of justice so simple and so elementary? |
32644 | But why have they not asked the pope to become the head of the free thought league? |
32644 | Eliminate pauperism? |
32644 | Give the worker the entire product of his labor? |
32644 | Had not Lessing affirmed that history is an education of the human race? |
32644 | Had not Rousseau seen that ideas are born from needs? |
32644 | Had they not carried on their shoulders all the ardent defenders of liberty and equality? |
32644 | Has there not been a passing from revolution to the self- styled evolution? |
32644 | Has there not been an acquiescence of the revolutionary spirit in the exigencies of the reform movement? |
32644 | Have we not there, some ask, a deviation from the simple and imperative doctrine of the Manifesto? |
32644 | How can it be hoped to destroy such a system by an act of logical negation and how eliminate it by reasoning? |
32644 | How could a cherished ideal be still opposed to the hard reality of history? |
32644 | How demand the suppression of poverty without demanding the overthrow of all the rest? |
32644 | In the successive whole, and in the continuous necessity of all historical events, is there, then, some ask, any meaning, any significance? |
32644 | Is it advantageous for states and for nations to accumulate money? |
32644 | Is it not very significant? |
32644 | Is not that in fact the vital part of the Manifesto, its essence and its distinctive character? |
32644 | Need we remind the reader that writing was never lost, although the peoples who invented it have disappeared from historic continuity? |
32644 | Others again say, have we not lost in intensity and precision what we have gained in extension and complexity? |
32644 | Then, these ingenuous questions immediately arise: Why not abolish poverty? |
32644 | There is one question which we can not evade: What has given birth to the belief in_ historic factors_? |
32644 | What is the explanation of this change? |
32644 | What were the causes of their failure? |
32644 | What, for example, is the meaning of the lives of the great men? |
32644 | Where shall we find the laws of this formation and of this development? |
32644 | Why could not Michel de Lando have written the Communist Manifesto? |
32644 | Why not eliminate lockouts? |
32644 | Why not favor the direct exchange of products in consideration of the labor that they contain? |
32644 | Why not give the worker the entire product of his labor, etc.? |
32644 | Why not imagine a fief which, remaining a fief all the while, should become a factory producing commodities exclusively? |
32644 | Why not suppress the middle man? |
32644 | Why should the slave have had the ways of seeing and the passions and the sentiments of the master whom he feared? |
32644 | Will this irony of human destinies ever cease? |
32644 | [ 23] What is the doctrine of the structure of present society? |
32644 | [ 26] Who would have thought a few years ago of the discovery and the authentic interpretation of an ancient Babylonian law? |
34012 | Did I belong to the A. R. U.? 34012 Did I?" |
34012 | Say, Gene,he continued, still holding me with both hands,"I am pretty well down, ai n''t I? |
34012 | And could I call him brother without insulting him? |
34012 | And if not, who is entitled to any part of it? |
34012 | And then what happened? |
34012 | And when you are out of a job what can your union do for you? |
34012 | And who shall say that they were not right; or that they forfeited their brave lives in vain? |
34012 | And why is this awful battle raging and human beings murdering each other as if they were wild beasts? |
34012 | Are their interest not diametrically opposite? |
34012 | Are they not entitled to all of it? |
34012 | At the same time Cook said,''Stop a minute-- where is Edwin''s hand?'' |
34012 | Because the Mine and Smelter Trust had kidnaped three citizens of the republic? |
34012 | Boodle drawn from the veins of labor? |
34012 | But even if you do find a master, if you have a job, can you boast of being a man among men? |
34012 | But how about the working class? |
34012 | But how is it at present? |
34012 | But how is it in this outgrown capitalist system? |
34012 | Can a door be both open and shut at the same time? |
34012 | Can you increase both the workers''and the capitalist''s share at the same time? |
34012 | Can you read this without being moved to tears? |
34012 | Dared I call him brother? |
34012 | Debs?" |
34012 | Debs?" |
34012 | Did Mr. Bryan utter a word? |
34012 | Did he not know at the time that his man Cortelyou was holding up the trusts for all they would"cough up"for his election? |
34012 | Did, or did not, the men known as trust magnates put up this boodle? |
34012 | Do they not all alike stand for the private ownership of industry and the wage- slavery of the working class? |
34012 | Do you endorse the supreme court decision making it lawful for a corporation to discharge a man because of his membership in a labor union? |
34012 | Do you know how long you are going to have one? |
34012 | Do you know whether you have a job or not? |
34012 | Does not this brand the president with the duplicity of a Tweed and the cunning of a Quay? |
34012 | Have the mill- owners gone stark mad? |
34012 | Have they in their brutal rage become stone- blind? |
34012 | He is marked as an agitator, he is discharged, and then what is his status? |
34012 | How can any intelligent, self- respecting wage- worker give his support to either of these corrupt capitalist parties? |
34012 | How is it with the average workingman today? |
34012 | How many of their detractors and persecutors were animated by motives so pure and exalted? |
34012 | If the man who produces wealth is not entitled to it, who is? |
34012 | If you find yourself in a party that attacks your pocket do you not quit that party? |
34012 | If you increase the share of the capitalist do n''t you decrease the share of the workers? |
34012 | In other words, why do not the Republican and Democratic parties perform at Washington instead of promising at Chicago and Baltimore? |
34012 | Is not that a fact? |
34012 | Is there any doubt in the mind of any thinking workingman that we are in the midst of a class struggle? |
34012 | Is there any doubt that the workingman ought to own the tool he works with? |
34012 | Now why should not just these things come to pass and why should not you children help us speed the day when they_ shall_ come to pass? |
34012 | Now, is it possible to be for the capitalist without being against the worker? |
34012 | Now, what is class- consciousness? |
34012 | Oh, my brothers, can you be satisfied with your lot? |
34012 | U.?" |
34012 | Was Jesus divinely begotten? |
34012 | Was Roosevelt also"horrified"? |
34012 | Was ever anything in all the annals of heartless persecution more monstrous than this? |
34012 | What assurance has he that he is going to keep it? |
34012 | What assurance has he that it is his in twenty- four hours? |
34012 | What can the present economic organization do to improve the condition of the workingman? |
34012 | What difference is there, judged by what they stand for, between Taft, Roosevelt, La Follette, Harmon, Wilson, Clark and Bryan? |
34012 | What earthly difference can it make to the millions of workers whether the Republican or Democratic political machine of capitalism is in commission? |
34012 | What is a party? |
34012 | What is it that is responsible for their exploitation and for all of the ills they suffer? |
34012 | What is it that keeps the working class in subjection? |
34012 | What is politics? |
34012 | What is the key to their ability as masters of language? |
34012 | What right has Theodore Roosevelt to prejudge American citizens, pronounce their guilt and hand them over to the hangman? |
34012 | What school subjects, or what kinds of training have entered into their lives that have given them power to express themselves effectively? |
34012 | What, I ask, has any of these capitalist parties, or all of them combined, for the working and producing class in this campaign? |
34012 | Who finances them? |
34012 | Who is it that is so fearful you will discuss politics? |
34012 | Why did not Mr. Byran speak? |
34012 | Why forced to surrender to anybody any part of what his labor produces? |
34012 | Why should a union man be afraid to discuss politics? |
34012 | Why should any workingman need to beg for work? |
34012 | Will Mr. Roosevelt deny it? |
34012 | Will he dare plead ignorance to intelligent persons as to who put up the money that debauched the voters of the nation? |
34012 | Will you insist that life shall continue a mere struggle for existence and one prolonged misery to which death comes as a blessed relief? |
34012 | Would a president who is honest with the people clandestinely consort with the villain he characterizes as a liar and all that is vicious? |
34012 | You do n''t unite with capitalists on the economic field; why should you politically? |
34012 | You may, at times, temporarily better your condition within certain limitations, but you will still remain wage- slaves, and why wage- slaves? |
31933 | Is human thought sovereign? |

31933 | And how could Robinson derive benefit from the labor of Friday? |

31933 | But in what consist these signs of life which are common to all living objects? |
31933 | But is it absolute, a final truth of last instance within specific bounds? |
31933 | But to what purpose is all this prolixity? |
31933 | But what about the mechanical theory of heat and of latent heat which is a"stumbling block"in the path of the theory? |
31933 | But what about those truths which are so well established that to doubt them is to be, as it were, crazy? |
31933 | But what does Herr Duehring care for that? |
31933 | But what effect has this argument on Herr Duehring? |
31933 | But what has the realist philosophy of a positive nature to contribute with respect to the evolution of organic life? |
31933 | But what is adaptation without conscious intention, without any intrusion of design of which he complains so loudly, but an unconscious teleology? |
31933 | But what is the normal course of life of this plant? |
31933 | But where was mechanical energy at the period of unchangeableness? |
31933 | But who has given the impetus to the investigation as to whence these variations and differentiations proceed? |
31933 | But who shall be judge as regards the realist philosophy? |
31933 | By original creation? |
31933 | Confused mixture, who changes his ground, who is a comical fellow Herr Duehring? |
31933 | Did he not suffer defeat after defeat? |
31933 | Do we not perceive then that there are eternal truths, final truths of last instance? |
31933 | From thought itself? |
31933 | How can these come into being? |
31933 | How can this difficulty with respect to the economic society be overcome? |
31933 | How did he get the sword? |
31933 | How did this arise? |
31933 | How do these forms of calculation fulfil themselves? |
31933 | How do we arrive at the idea of the unity of existence from that of its soleness? |
31933 | How is it possible to keep selling dearer than one buys under the assumption that equal values are always exchanged for equal values? |
31933 | How is it to- day, however? |
31933 | How then can there be any further interest in what I have to say about Herr Duehring? |
31933 | How then do we solve the whole weighty question of the higher wages of compound labor? |
31933 | How? |
31933 | If the universe was in a condition in which no change occurred in it, how did it ever manage to get from that state to one of change? |
31933 | In all cases therefore it implies a certain power of possession which transcends the ordinary? |
31933 | In what are we manifest? |
31933 | Is infinity in space expressed in this way, even remotely? |
31933 | Is it not a fact that the competing entrepreneurs really sell the product of labor every day at its natural cost of production? |
31933 | Is it the thought of an individual man? |
31933 | Is this commandment, then, an eternal commandment? |
31933 | Marx''contention rationally put is How is surplus value transformed into its subordinate forms, profit, interest, trade- profits, ground rents etc.? |
31933 | That is all very well; but the question still persists what does force distribute? |
31933 | The question is what becomes of the heat while it is latent? |
31933 | There is confusion, indeed, but with whom, with Haeckel or with Herr Duehring? |
31933 | This is the fact about the exchange in the economic society, but what about the form of it? |
31933 | Was it merely for the pleasure of doing so? |
31933 | Was not Napoleon utterly defeated in his conflict with Europe? |
31933 | What are commodities? |
31933 | What are we then to believe? |
31933 | What attitude did Marx take to the negation of the negation? |
31933 | What have we then? |
31933 | What is the negation of the negation, therefore? |
31933 | What is the origin of this surplus value? |
31933 | What is there to hinder Herr Duehring himself from discovering the mechanical system of the original nebular state? |
31933 | What system of ethics is preached to us to- day? |
31933 | What then is left of the equality of all and every sort of labor? |
31933 | What was before this beginning? |
31933 | When the cry of"Down with the Tsar"takes the place of the humbly spoken"Little Father"what becomes of the Tsardom? |
31933 | When the terms"Liberty"and"Equality"become the jest of the workshop, upon what basis can a modern democratic state depend? |
31933 | Where does this surplus value come from? |
31933 | Where was the unchangeable mechanical force then, Herr Duehring, and what was it busy about? |
31933 | Wherein does the social character of these private products consist? |
31933 | Which is the true one? |
31933 | Who are we? |
31933 | Who deepens and who sharpens? |
31933 | Why should we seek further since Herr Duehring has brought his own edifice of equality which he so laboriously constructed tumbling to the ground? |
35572 | Shall we permit it? 35572 Who would benefit by cheap municipal gas?" |
35572 | Why should I toy with words when I have this? |
35572 | A redistribution of seats in accordance with population? |
35572 | A statutory minimum wage, as in Victoria, especially for sweated trades? |
35572 | All Parliamentary elections to be held on the same day? |
35572 | An Eight- Hours''Bill, without an option clause, for miners; and, for railway servants, a forty- eight- hours''week? |
35572 | An amendment of the registration laws, with the aim of giving every adult man a vote, and no one more than one vote? |
35572 | An increase of the scale of graduation of the death duties, so as to fall more heavily on large inheritances? |
35572 | And how win the state? |
35572 | Are these conditions necessary concomitants of the modern class- state( Klassenstaat)? |
35572 | As to the second question: How long will the coalition hang together? |
35572 | But are their feet upon the earth? |
35572 | But what laboring man needs gas? |
35572 | But why mark shore- lines? |
35572 | CONCLUSION 250 APPENDIX 273 INDEX 347 SOCIALISM AND DEMOCRACY IN EUROPE CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION-- WHY DOES SOCIALISM EXIST? |
35572 | Compulsory arbitration, as in New Zealand, to prevent strikes and lockouts? |
35572 | Do you wish your County Council to attempt nothing more for London than the old Metropolitan Board of Works? |
35572 | He said:"Now, my lords, what is the character of all this legislation? |
35572 | He wrote as the motto for his most influential book,_ What Is Property?_,"Destruam et aedificabo"( I will destroy and I will build again). |
35572 | How did it come about that society was so organized as to permit this wholesale wrong upon the largest and most defenseless of its classes? |
35572 | How is this great change to come about, and what is to be the exact organization of society under this regime of work and co- operation? |
35572 | How will be accomplished the supreme transformation of the capitalist régime into the collectivist or communist? |
35572 | II And what is the present organization of the Social Democratic Party? |
35572 | In 1840 he brought out his notable work,_ Qu''est- ce que la Propriété?_( What Is Property? |
35572 | In 1840 he brought out his notable work,_ Qu''est- ce que la Propriété?_( What Is Property? |
35572 | Is it a crude theory, an earnest protest, a powerful propaganda? |
35572 | Is it not possible to modify police administration, and the legislative conditions that profane Prussia to- day? |
35572 | Is it not possible, through parliamentary action, to take high tariffs and business speculations from the necks of the workingmen? |
35572 | Is there a rational trend in Socialism? |
35572 | Must there always be industrial war? |
35572 | One hundred years ago it was, What sort of a state shall we have? |
35572 | Or is it a current of human conviction so strong, so deep- flowing that it will be resistless? |
35572 | Or is it only a passing whim of the masses? |
35572 | Private property, the stronghold of the individualist, is then to be abolished and a universal communism established? |
35572 | Second, how long will the Labor Party hold together and prompt the action of the Liberals and Radicals in social legislation? |
35572 | State pensions for the support of the aged or chronically infirm? |
35572 | The Socialists have precipitated a serious problem in this relation of the government employee to the state: Can the state employees form a union? |
35572 | The abolition of all duties on tea, cocoa, coffee, currants, and other dried fruits? |
35572 | The admission of women to seats in the House of Commons and on borough and county councils? |
35572 | The appropriation of the unearned increment by the taxation and rating of ground values? |
35572 | The compulsory provision by every local authority of adequate hospital accommodation for all diseases and accidents? |
35572 | The creation of a complete system of public secondary education genuinely available to the children of the poor? |
35572 | The extension of the Workmen''s Compensation Act to seamen, and to all other classes of wage earners? |
35572 | The fixing of"an eight- hours''day"as the maximum for all public servants; and the abolition, wherever possible, of overtime? |
35572 | The further equalization of the rates in London? |
35572 | The further taxation of unearned incomes by means of a graduated and differentiated income- tax? |
35572 | The grant of the franchise to women on the same terms as to men? |
35572 | The majority of the workingmen are already in the party, where will the increase come from? |
35572 | The nationalization of mining rents and royalties? |
35572 | The payment of all members of Parliament and of Parliamentary election expenses, out of public funds? |
35572 | The prohibition of the industrial or wage- earning employment of children during school terms prior to the age of 14? |
35572 | The provision of meals, out of public funds, for necessitous children in public elementary schools? |
35572 | The question is now being seriously asked: Can there be a social co- operation? |
35572 | The real question at issue was this: Is striking an act of mutiny? |
35572 | The second ballot at Parliamentary and other elections? |
35572 | The training of teachers under public control and free from sectarian influences? |
35572 | Transfer of the railways to the State under the Act of 1844? |
35572 | Triennial Parliaments? |
35572 | WHY DOES SOCIALISM EXIST? |
35572 | What right has a capitalist to charge me eight per cent.? |
35572 | What shall the state do? |
35572 | What, then, becomes of the"surplus value,"the value over and above wages? |
35572 | When has he time to read? |
35572 | Where is this encroachment of the state on private"rights"going to end? |
35572 | Who would intrust the running of a railroad to our Federal or State governments? |
35572 | Why should the Deptford ratepayer have to pay nearly two shillings in the pound more than the inhabitant of St. George''s, Hanover Square? |
35572 | [ 13]_ What Is Property?_ Collected Works, Vol. |
35572 | [ 15]"Do you enjoy freedom from political interference?" |
35572 | [ 19] V Who were these revolutionary labor leaders, this small handful of plotters to whom Briand constantly alluded? |
35572 | [ 39] Two questions naturally arise: First, how far will this movement toward Social Democracy go? |
35572 | [ 4] But who is a Socialist? |
35572 | [ 4] What are the ideals of Socialism? |
35572 | [_ Great commotion and disturbance._] But what would be the meaning of this admission that small concessions can be secured? |
35572 | _ Q._"Are you not a man?" |

17416 | ABLE MEN AS A CORPORATION OF STATE OFFICIALS How are the men fittest for posts of industrial power to be selected from the less fit? |
17416 | Ability, then, being the faculty which directs labour, by what means does it give effect to its directions? |
17416 | And an escape from the wage- system-- and one not theoretically impracticable-- it no doubt is; but an escape into what? |
17416 | And how would it accomplish this end? |
17416 | And to what is the difference between these two values due? |
17416 | And what does the labour of these men produce? |
17416 | And what has Mr. Hillquit-- the intellectual Ajax of the socialists-- got to say about this? |
17416 | And what is the explanation of this? |
17416 | And what is the next step? |
17416 | And what would be the result? |
17416 | And why should they be less formidable? |
17416 | As such, then, let us accept it; and what will our conclusion be? |
17416 | But if such enactments were made by the so- called all- powerful majority, through a governor of their own way of thinking, what would be the result? |
17416 | But limited by what means? |
17416 | But what is this ability itself? |
17416 | But what, he asks, becomes of this surplus? |
17416 | But why? |
17416 | Can it be said that any of it is attributable to labour? |
17416 | Do they do this? |
17416 | Do they make an attempt to do this? |
17416 | Does human nature, as history, as psychology, and as physiology reveal it to us, give us any grounds, in fact, for taking such an assertion seriously? |
17416 | Does it go to the labourers who have produced it? |
17416 | Does it produce, then, sixty, or sixty- five, or seventy, or eighty- three, or what? |
17416 | For what is the bait with which, from its first beginnings till to- day, socialism has sought to secure the support of the general multitude? |
17416 | For what, he goes on to ask, was the cause of such wide- spread horrors? |
17416 | For what, he says, as a fact do we find the inventors doing? |
17416 | How are we to explain the presence of the additional twenty- six? |
17416 | How could a man do anything unless he had some environment? |
17416 | How would America be helped in the construction of the Panama Canal by learning from sociologists that man could remove mountains? |
17416 | How would a mother, whose child was hovering between life and death, be comforted by the information that man was a great physician? |
17416 | How, we might ask, is it to acquire this latter character by being turned into a desire for what is produced by other people? |
17416 | In a word, does ordinary labour, or the industrial effort of the majority, contain in itself any principle of advance at all? |
17416 | Is human nature in general, and the nature of the monopolists in particular, sufficiently adaptable to admit of such a change as this? |
17416 | Is it defensible on grounds of abstract justice? |
17416 | Is it due to such labour as that of the"untirable human animals,"to which Mill refers as an example of labour in its intensest form? |
17416 | Is the proposal practicable? |
17416 | Now, how would Christian socialism alter a state of things like this? |
17416 | Now, what does all this talk about the emancipation of labour mean? |
17416 | Now, why is this? |
17416 | Or what will happen if we take two girders away? |
17416 | Such being the case, then, asks the writer, what does Christian socialism aim at? |
17416 | The fact on which it bases itself is no doubt true enough; but what is the utmost that it proves? |
17416 | The first economic"lesson"in it begins thus:"Who creates all wealth? |
17416 | The remotest of these ancestors-- why were they horses at all? |
17416 | The successful development of the automobile did not take place till yesterday-- and why? |
17416 | To what is this development of knowledge, of methods, and of machinery due? |
17416 | To what, then, was this increase in industrial productivity due? |
17416 | Two problems with which modern socialism is confronted: How would it test its able men so as to select the best of them for places of power? |
17416 | Unless he had some past, how could he exist at all? |
17416 | What kind of equal opportunity can be possibly provided for them now? |
17416 | What rewards could it offer them which would induce them systematically to develop, and be willing to exercise, their exceptional faculties? |
17416 | What to the astronomer are all the dykes of Holland? |
17416 | What will happen if they do not? |
17416 | What will happen without an additional girder? |
17416 | What would be the result if all who inherited capital spent it as income, instead of living on the interest of it? |
17416 | What, then, as a theory, are the distinctive features of socialism? |
17416 | What, then, is the common measure, in accordance with which, as a fact, one kind of commodity will exchange for any other, or any others? |
17416 | What, then, is the explanation of his indulging in a performance of this degrading kind? |
17416 | When the capital is provided, how will it first be used? |
17416 | Where has this addition to the income of labour come from? |
17416 | Who are the workers? |
17416 | Why does the speed of this horse exceed that of the others? |
17416 | Why must the permissible amounts of income and of bequeathable property be of proportions such as those which he contemplates? |
17416 | Why should they be considered? |
17416 | Why, then, speak of ability?" |
17416 | Why, they say in effect, should you listen to the agitator in the street, when we can give you something just as good from the pulpit? |
17416 | Will the stone fall or not? |
17416 | Yes-- but for what reason? |
17416 | Yes; but how much more? |
34979 | Then you would keep the trusts we have and welcome others? |
34979 | Well, but how would you deal with the harm? |
34979 | Would you pay for or just take them? |
34979 | ''"[ 37] But these few words beg the whole question: Need we abolish the competitive stimulus in the adoption of the Socialist cure? |
34979 | And how do these exceptions use their leisure? |
34979 | And of the 9,000,000 that remain, how many are economically free? |
34979 | And so we are led insensibly to a question of still wider importance: Is wealth money or is it happiness? |
34979 | Answering the question,"Do you believe in a State constabulary to coöperate with the railway police in prosecuting vagrants?" |
34979 | Are these the saints of the latter day? |
34979 | As bearing on the question of, literally,"Who pays the freight?" |
34979 | As to the rest, it is the dream of a young doctor to get a large practice; and when his dream is realized, how much leisure does he enjoy? |
34979 | But how is it when the law becomes the kidnapper, when the officers of the law, using its forms and exerting its power, become abductors? |
34979 | But how? |
34979 | But is the experience of the entire race during its entire history to be treated as of no importance in this connection? |
34979 | But to what does this freedom of contract between employee and employee lead? |
34979 | But what is the worst consequence that can result from failure? |
34979 | But why does he do this? |
34979 | But_ who had gold with which to buy these bills? |
34979 | CAN HUMAN NATURE BE CHANGED BY LAW? |
34979 | CHAPTER VII CAN THE EVILS OF CAPITALISM BE ELIMINATED BY COÖPERATION? |
34979 | Can anyone who knows the family life of Socialists assert that the divorce rate among them is greater than that of the community in which they live? |
34979 | Can our system of production be so modified as to assure this to him? |
34979 | Can we not confine ourselves to eliminating the gambling element in it? |
34979 | Can we not diminish the stakes without abandoning them altogether? |
34979 | Can we not take our arsenic in tonic instead of in fatal doses? |
34979 | Does this seem Utopian? |
34979 | Has he ever thought of the tyranny of the trust, or the tyranny of the market from which both inevitably spring? |
34979 | He then asks:"How then can the police execute the law, when there seems to be so much doubt as to what the law really is?" |
34979 | Here again we come up against the morality of man; will he continue to poison himself with absinthe or will he abstain? |
34979 | How long are we going to allow our opinions to be manufactured for us by water companies in London and gas companies in New York? |
34979 | How long can this last?" |
34979 | How otherwise is it possible for prizefights to be held in New York city, in spite of the earnest efforts of the police to prevent them? |
34979 | How, then, will they explain the extraordinary haste with which ships sought to reach this port before the new tariff came into effect? |
34979 | If, then, it turns out that both these assumptions are false, is it not time for him to revise his philosophy? |
34979 | In other words, is coöperation a practical cure for competition? |
34979 | Is it possible that with the record of these men before us, we can maintain the theory that gain is the only stimulus to invention? |
34979 | Is it, then, so fantastic to suppose that modern machinery, under a socialized system of production, could cut this day in two? |
34979 | Is the assumption that economic science is uninfluenced by morality true or false? |
34979 | Is there not a little loose thinking about this confusion of Socialism and Communism? |
34979 | Is this exaggeration? |
34979 | Now what is the difference between games and gambling? |
34979 | Or can they be enjoyed equally by all? |
34979 | Or is it that Mr. Roosevelt is just a century behindhand? |
34979 | Or is it that he has never read the works of Proudhon and Karl Marx, whom he groups together as propounding the same kind of Socialism? |
34979 | Science says:"Man is born with passions, but are these passions sinful? |
34979 | What are the facts in the case at bar as alleged in the petition, and which it is conceded must be assumed to be true? |
34979 | What avails it to a drunkard to know that drink is the cause of his misery, if he has not the power to refuse it? |
34979 | What is exactly the meaning of this sentence? |
34979 | What is the difference between reform and revolution? |
34979 | What restraint would you put upon yourselves? |
34979 | What stake have the majority of New York citizens in the government of the city? |
34979 | What then are they interested in? |
34979 | What under these circumstances would be the special functions of Congress? |
34979 | What would be your restraint?" |
34979 | What, then, would be the consequence if the suggestion were minimized by the absence of prostitution altogether? |
34979 | Who had been hoarding gold?_ What do these facts disclose? |
34979 | Who had been hoarding gold?_ What do these facts disclose? |
34979 | Who knows the name of the inventor of the slot machine so much in vogue to- day? |
34979 | Why should it not animate them all? |
34979 | Would such a system at the same time attain justice? |
34979 | [ 105] How far has experience justified these anticipations? |
34979 | [ 18] Or the lumber camps to which these men are driven where there is no employment for women? |
34979 | [ 190] Were these ships hurrying to port in order to escape the payment of a low tariff? |
34979 | [ 71] Is or is not the contention with which this chapter started, justified? |
34979 | _ Q._"And if it results in crushing him out?" |
34979 | _ Q._"Not the affair of the American Sugar Refining Company?" |
34979 | _ Q._"Then, if you had the power to charge or impose prices on the public, what would be your idea of the limit that the public could possibly stand?" |
34979 | _ Q._"Would it not be the utmost limit that the consumer would bear?" |
30506 | But what is this propaganda except the preaching of well- doing and love of humanity by example? 30506 Condemn the propaganda of deed?" |
30506 | What matters the death of vague human beings--continues the Anarchist logician Tailhade--"if thereby the individual affirms himself?" |
30506 | What more have we to do with State legislation, with State justice, with State police, and with State administration than with State religion? 30506 What was the result? |
30506 | [ 59] Question: How will the new society satisfy the needs of its members? 30506 [ 67] Could the best geometrician in the world ever produce anything more exact than this demonstration? |
30506 | According to Proudhon, before Kant, the believer and the philosopher moved"by an irresistible impulse,"asked themselves,"What is God?" |
30506 | According to what laws?" |
30506 | And after, when they have conquered these? |
30506 | And how can the workers, morally enslaved, rise against the bourgeoisie? |
30506 | And if they are bad what is the good of magistrates to apply them?" |
30506 | And this is the position of every impartial person to- day; for how are you going to divine where the"companion"ends and the bandit begins? |
30506 | Are we not coming back to the standpoint of Morelly who said that humanity in the course of its history has always been"outside nature?" |
30506 | Because the bourgeoisie are not a minority? |
30506 | But abstraction made of the history of humanity, what is there left to guide us in our"legislative"investigations? |
30506 | But again we ask, what is left of the Anarchist when once he rejects the"propaganda of deed"? |
30506 | But do you prefer to hand over France to the Prussians?... |
30506 | But how organise exchange? |
30506 | But how to emancipate the peasants before overthrowing Tzarism? |
30506 | But if this is so, in the name of what moral principle do the Anarchists revolt against the bourgeoisie? |
30506 | But is the_ price_ of commodities always determined by their value? |
30506 | But since this is so, how can the_ individual_, the reality, sacrifice himself for the happiness of man, an abstract being? |
30506 | But what Utopian has not tried to prove this equally with himself? |
30506 | But what in its turn did these"conditions of property"depend on? |
30506 | But what is the impetus, the motive power that sets in motion the human species, that makes it pass from one phase of its evolution to another? |
30506 | But what is the outcome of their fear of parliamentary corruption? |
30506 | But what is this humanity the love of which you prescribe to me? |
30506 | But what is to be done if,"the State having fallen into decay,"it should continue to exist? |
30506 | But what will, what can be the true basis of any given combination of their interests? |
30506 | But, then, what is the cause of the historical transformation of the"human Being?" |
30506 | But,"the State having fallen into decay,"who is to abolish it? |
30506 | But_ what_ individual does he take for his starting- point? |
30506 | By what means is circulation carried out in society? |
30506 | Do not prices continually vary according to the rarity or abundance of these commodities? |
30506 | Do you know how he"invents"the constitution of value? |
30506 | Does this not prove that the human Being is not immutable, but changes in the process of the historical evolution of societies? |
30506 | Following the example of Kant we stated the question thus:"How is it that man possesses? |
30506 | For if laws are beneficent what is the good of deputies and senators to change them? |
30506 | From time immemorial men have asked themselves, What is authority? |
30506 | Having heard that Divinity was but a fiction, he concluded that the State is also a figment: since God does not exist, how can the State exist? |
30506 | How is property acquired? |
30506 | How is the comparison of products instituted? |
30506 | How lost? |
30506 | How shall this absolute liberty, synonymous with order, be brought about? |
30506 | How to explain this historical fact? |
30506 | How to get out of this conflict, how resolve the dilemma without offending the holy laws of Anarchy? |
30506 | How will it make them certain of the morrow? |
30506 | If, as it did in March, 1871, it gave itself a revolutionary Government? |
30506 | In order to set free and to realise all these terms, until now hidden beneath the old symbols of property, what must be done? |
30506 | Indeed, suppose the signatory of a contract freely made does not wish to fulfil his duty? |
30506 | Is it necessary to point out that this"Marxism"is a little too_ sui generis_? |
30506 | Is it political liberty which ought in the nature of things to be the main object of his attention? |
30506 | Is not the political constitution in its turn rooted-- as even Guizot admitted-- in the social constitution of a country? |
30506 | Is not this also a spook, an abstract thing, a creature of the imagination? |
30506 | Is not this an entirely Utopian conception of human nature, and of the social organisation peculiar to it? |
30506 | Is not this sufficiently unjust? |
30506 | Is not this sufficiently"materialist?" |
30506 | Is there any way of putting an end to this interminable and barren controversy? |
30506 | Is this really so? |
30506 | Is this the work of the State? |
30506 | Is this wisdom so difficult of attainment? |
30506 | It is only himself, it is liberty that the citizen seeks in Government.... Then the very essence of the citizen is liberty? |
30506 | Let us now ask, what is this"free agreement"which according to Kropotkine, exists even in capitalist society? |
30506 | May not we also, in the name of freedom, ask the"companions"to leave us alone? |
30506 | Now what is this social struggle? |
30506 | Now, what is the formula of this political and liberal guarantee? |
30506 | Now, what sort of a figure does the property of the"Individual"cut? |
30506 | Of what does this impetus consist? |
30506 | Or again: Which is the better, property or the community? |
30506 | Or because they do not do what they"will"to do? |
30506 | Question: Will production be possible if it depends solely upon the free agreement of individuals? |
30506 | Religious faith would have prevented such theories from being propagated; but has it not almost disappeared to- day? |
30506 | Should I not to- day and in the future be bound by my will of yesterday? |
30506 | Should I only be the holder of property( an allusion to Proudhon)? |
30506 | Suppose we have to do with justice and the penal law, for example? |
30506 | The best organisation of property? |
30506 | The system of Louis Blanc or that of Cabet? |
30506 | The theory of St. Simon or that of Fourier? |
30506 | Then how is it that man labours? |
30506 | They then asked themselves"Which, of all religions, is the best?" |
30506 | This hunt after the best ideal of the society of the future, is not this the Utopian method_ par excellence_? |
30506 | This"most complete autonomy,"is it not also a"metaphysical conception?" |
30506 | Tom, Dick, or Harry? |
30506 | Under what conditions? |
30506 | We did not ask, as our precursors and colleagues had done, Which is the best system of community? |
30506 | We have only to ask ourselves whence comes this idea of authority, of government? |
30506 | What answer can you make them? |
30506 | What are, what can be the basis of their union? |
30506 | What could be easier, what more pleasant? |
30506 | What does it want? |
30506 | What form of legislation therefore can harmonise public good and that of individuals? |
30506 | What is Kropotkine''s conception of Anarchist society? |
30506 | What is the law of its evolution and transformation? |
30506 | What is the standpoint of this new species of Communism? |
30506 | What is this hidden force that causes the historic movement of humanity? |
30506 | What is this liberty which we are assuming to be the essence of the citizen? |
30506 | What then is this system? |
30506 | What, in fine, does it represent?... |
30506 | Where are we to seek it? |
30506 | Where does it exist but in the minds of men, in the minds of individuals? |
30506 | Where is this humanity of yours? |
30506 | Which is the best form of government? |
30506 | Whither does it tend? |
30506 | Who will give us a new ideal?" |
30506 | Why not the Panama Canal? |
30506 | You think my own concerns must at least be''good ones?'' |
30506 | [ 20] What did we say in these two publications, one after the other of which fell beneath the blows of the reaction and the state of siege? |
30506 | [ 52] But if the Great Misunderstood had the stupidity to create the"bureaux"so detested of Kropotkine? |
30506 | [ By whom?] |
44800 | How is that possible,says he,"since these arts were invented by Trismegistus?" |
44800 | Amongst good laws, one of the best things was, that everybody was taught to observe them( by whom?). |
44800 | And have I not experience on my side? |
44800 | And if mankind is not competent to judge for itself, why do they talk so much about universal suffrage? |
44800 | And is it not clear, that the interest of all being one and the same, some would act without much inconvenience to the others? |
44800 | And what are these two questions? |
44800 | And what does this prove? |
44800 | And what has resulted from it? |
44800 | And what is liberty? |
44800 | And what is the remedy proposed? |
44800 | And what part have men to act in all this? |
44800 | And who is to give the impulse to power? |
44800 | And why is incapacity a reason for exclusion? |
44800 | And, in all sincerity, can anything more be required at the hands of the law? |
44800 | And, in fact, what is the political work that we are endeavoring to promote? |
44800 | Are age, sex, and judicial condemnations the only conditions to which incapacity is to be attached? |
44800 | Are not our persons and property in fact, at its disposal? |
44800 | Are not rights equal? |
44800 | Are political rights under discussion? |
44800 | Are the people to be forever led about by the nose? |
44800 | Are they not arrived at maturity? |
44800 | Are they not in a state to judge for themselves? |
44800 | Are we not living in an age of enlightenment? |
44800 | Are we not told that liberty is competition? |
44800 | But are we not assured by Mr. Considerant that liberty leads fatally to monopoly? |
44800 | But how is it that Mr. Montalembert does not see that he is placing himself in a vicious circle? |
44800 | But how is it to be distinguished? |
44800 | But what does it do? |
44800 | But what is this incline? |
44800 | But what plunder did he mean? |
44800 | By whose intervention is society to give tools of labor to those who do not possess them? |
44800 | Can the law, whose necessary sanction is force, be reasonably employed upon anything beyond securing to every one his right? |
44800 | Can the people be mistaken? |
44800 | Do not the legislators and their agents form a part of the human race? |
44800 | Do they consider that they are composed of different materials from the rest of mankind? |
44800 | Do they not know their own interest? |
44800 | Does it follow that if the law confines itself to securing to us the free exercise of our faculties, our faculties will be paralyzed? |
44800 | Does it follow that if we are free, we shall cease to act? |
44800 | Does it follow that if we do not receive an impulse from the law, we shall receive no impulse at all? |
44800 | Does it not lead to an abyss? |
44800 | Does not Mr. Louis Blanc tell us again that competition{ 45} leads to monopoly, and that, for the same reason, cheapness leads to exorbitant prices? |
44800 | For what are our faculties, but the extension of our personality? |
44800 | For who will dare to say that force has been given to us, not to defend our rights, but to annihilate the equal rights of our brethren? |
44800 | From whom is the State to obtain them? |
44800 | Have they not acquired their rights at the cost of effort and sacrifice? |
44800 | Have they not given sufficient proof of intelligence and wisdom? |
44800 | How has this perversion of law been accomplished? |
44800 | How is this argument to be answered? |
44800 | How will you place it under the power of your tribunals, your gendarmes, and of your prisons? |
44800 | How, in fact, can we imagine force encroaching upon the liberty of citizens without infringing upon justice, and so acting against its proper aim? |
44800 | In point of fact, who are the capable? |
44800 | In the one it was wished( by whom?) |
44800 | In what does the impulse that power gives to society consist? |
44800 | In what does this power consist? |
44800 | Is a legislator to be chosen? |
44800 | Is it any wonder that every failure threatens to cause a revolution? |
44800 | Is it for the law to make choice of one amongst so many fancies, and to make use of the public force in its service? |
44800 | Is it likely that it would compromise that greatest of advantages, the public peace? |
44800 | Is it likely that the enfranchised classes would be very jealous of their privilege? |
44800 | Is it likely that the excluded classes would not quietly wait for their turn? |
44800 | Is it to be supposed that Nature has not bestowed upon me sufficient imagination to invent a Utopia too? |
44800 | Is not justice right? |
44800 | Is not the law omnipotent? |
44800 | Is there a man or a class who would dare to claim the right of putting himself in the place of the people, of deciding and of acting for them? |
44800 | It is the following: What is law? |
44800 | Liberty of association? |
44800 | Liberty of labor? |
44800 | Moreover, every profession had a district assigned to it( by whom?).... |
44800 | Now socialism, thus defined, and forming a doctrinal body, what other war would you make against it than a{ 15} war of doctrine? |
44800 | Once on this incline, will society enjoy something like liberty? |
44800 | That competition tends to drain the sources of consumption, and diverts production to a destructive activity? |
44800 | That of the machine, which is set in motion; or rather, are they not the brute matter of which the machine is made? |
44800 | The Socialists say, since the law organizes justice, why should it not organize labor, instruction, and religion? |
44800 | The liberty of exchange? |
44800 | Upon what principle is this exclusion founded? |
44800 | We will give a quotation from Bossuet: One of the things which was the most strongly impressed( by whom?) |
44800 | What are its limits? |
44800 | What is its domain? |
44800 | What is to give it this impulse? |
44800 | What ought it to be? |
44800 | What sort of liberty should be allowed to men? |
44800 | What then? |
44800 | What will you do then? |
44800 | What would be the consequences of such a perversion? |
44800 | What would become of its dignity if it were entrusted to the disciples of Rousseau? |
44800 | What, then, is law? |
44800 | When does plunder cease, then? |
44800 | Where is the law to stop? |
44800 | Where will you stop? |
44800 | Where, in fact, does the prerogative of the legislator stop? |
44800 | Which are the happiest, the most moral, and the most peaceable nations? |
44800 | Who is to give education and tools of labor? |
44800 | Why are they prevented? |
44800 | Why is this? |
44800 | Why, then, does not society go there of itself? |
44800 | Why? |
44800 | You have the gall to call that fine? |
44800 | and that competition, according to Mr. Louis Blanc, is a system of extermination for the people, and of ruination for trade? |
44800 | and what is property, but an extension of our faculties? |
44800 | is more than probable, there will be a no less inevitable revolution? |
20816 | And as for taking such property from the owners,asks Mr. H. G. Wells,"why should n''t we? |
20816 | And does the honest and capable business man stand to lose or gain by the coming of such a Socialist government? |
20816 | And what Socialist made himself ridiculous by such a foolish utterance? 20816 But,"he said,"do you believe that there ever exists a situation in the world which is exactly like another? |
20816 | Have the reforms secured blurred the main issue, have we lost sight of the goal? 20816 How are you going to compel men to work when they do not wish to work under the conditions you provide? |
20816 | How are you going to compel men to work? 20816 How much money,"asks the_ Appeal_,"did Morgan need in order to buy up all the independent steel companies for the steel trust?" |
20816 | Is there,Mr. Morley had asked,"any approach to such a body of systematic political thought in our own day?" |
20816 | McCarthy declares himself a friend of capital,says Sladden, but, he asks defiantly,"Does any sane capitalist believe him?" |
20816 | Sounds like home, does n''t it? 20816 War-- What For?" |
20816 | What is it,he said,"that enabled the fortunate possessors of these incomes and these fortunes to amass the wealth they enjoy or bequeath? |
20816 | What, further, is accountable for this growth of wealth? 20816 When we come to reason of it calmly, what can be gained by electing any human being to any office beneath the skies? |
20816 | Who is the people? 20816 [ 175] But if the Socialists can not educate the masses to know what they want concretely, how much less will they understand general principles? |
20816 | [ 1] What was this movement that the great theorist put above theory and his leading disciple valued above his master? 20816 [ 229] But how shall Socialists aid small farmers without increasing the number of small farms? |
20816 | And, finally, is not unemployment costing a billion a year to the"nation, considered as a business firm"? |
20816 | Are the great majority of farmers, then, rather small capitalists or laborers? |
20816 | But how is such a reorganization to be worked out? |
20816 | But in what circumstances do the Socialists expect to be able to make use of this weapon? |
20816 | But suppose the labor unions should try to evade the law by withdrawing from registry under the act? |
20816 | But what now is the attitude of laborers, tenants, etc., towards Socialism, and what program do the Socialists offer to attract them? |
20816 | But where will the money come from even for the payment of such limited compensation as the Socialists decide upon? |
20816 | By what means? |
20816 | By whom? |
20816 | Certainly the fundamental social questions in any country at any time are: Who gets the increment of wealth? |
20816 | Did we mean what we said? |
20816 | Do you believe that a budget vote to- day must absolutely be like a budget vote two years from now?" |
20816 | Does he expect the exploiters to look on good- naturedly while we take one position after another and make ready for their expropriation? |
20816 | E.''from moving all its belongings to Erie? |
20816 | Especially, what principles have been applied by the judges? |
20816 | For State Socialism?" |
20816 | Has not Mr. Brisbane hinted repeatedly at a possible revolution in the future? |
20816 | How far shall existing vested rights be compensated? |
20816 | How say you to that? |
20816 | How shall it profit the working class to have Mr. Smith made sheriff or Mr. Jones become the coroner? |
20816 | I say again, within a generation? |
20816 | If both are striving after the"immediately attainable,"how indeed could there be any lasting conflict, or serious difference of opinion? |
20816 | If people tend to be satisfied with reform, what difference does it make as to the ultimate political or social ideals of those who bring it about? |
20816 | If the present tendencies continue, why may not the Radicals go farther? |
20816 | If the steps taken by reformers and"reformists"are the same, by what alchemy can the latter transform them into parts of a revolutionary program? |
20816 | If they do, will they get much benefit? |
20816 | In distributing the new taxes in the House of Commons, the question to be asked of each class of wealth is, he says,"By what process was it got?" |
20816 | Is it not even more common, we may ask, that one manual worker is set over another than that a brain worker is set over a manual laborer? |
20816 | It is true that Lagardelle''s"direct action"tends towards revolution, but does it tend towards Socialism? |
20816 | Leaders and guides of the people, is that what you think just and safe? |
20816 | May it not be that it is strong and getting stronger? |
20816 | May there not be as many landless agricultural workers forty years hence as there are now? |
20816 | Must it not, then, also be known that at a certain point the government will intervene on the other side and compel payment of adequate wages? |
20816 | No Socialist has expressed this view more clearly or forcefully than Mr. George R. Kirkpatrick, in his recent book,"War-- What For?" |
20816 | Now, what provision is made for generating the motor power of progress in Collectivism? |
20816 | People of the United States, is that what you desire and intend?" |
20816 | Preach revolutionary thoughts? |
20816 | Shall we send the regiments of Hanover and Mecklenburg against Hamburg? |
20816 | Should he be surprised if Milwaukee aldermen, like himself, interpret Socialism as they see fit, and forget that they are a part of a Socialist Party? |
20816 | That problem has always been: How can we frame conditions in which individuals can realize the best that is in them?" |
20816 | The chief possibility for a difference of opinion among most practical persons, whether Socialists or not, must come from the questions: How soon? |
20816 | The_ citizen owes it to society_ to ask of every proposed program of change,"Will it, within a reasonable period, bring equality of opportunity?" |
20816 | We are not seeking a catastrophe,--what use would it be to us? |
20816 | Wells, H. G.:"Is Socialism a movement or an idea?" |
20816 | What about that? |
20816 | What are these stages? |
20816 | What are you going to do about that? |
20816 | What do they expect to do when they have obtained that power? |
20816 | What gain will that be for Labor?" |
20816 | What has resulted? |
20816 | What is it that drives Kautsky into the position that I have described? |
20816 | What is the meaning, then, of the victory of a"Labour Party"in Australia? |
20816 | What is the people?" |
20816 | What now if these troops should refuse to shoot their fathers and brothers as the Kaiser has demanded? |
20816 | What then? |
20816 | What would happen? |
20816 | What, then, is the leading principle by which the two groups are to be made up and distinguished? |
20816 | Where did the table of that law come from? |
20816 | Who controls industry? |
20816 | Who is their trustee, their guardian, their man of business, their manager, their secretary, even their stockholder? |
20816 | Whose fingers inscribed it? |
20816 | Why is the sinister rôle of the upper classes not universally grasped? |
20816 | Why not have a court for business questions, on which no man could sit who has not had a business training with an honorable record? |
20816 | Why not have a similar goal for our business men? |
20816 | Why should those who happen to be landless in one generation instead of the next receive superior rights? |
20816 | Will it come of its own accord? |
20816 | Will it take the capitalists longer to learn to use the government for their purposes rather than to abuse it? |
20816 | Will these employees come in under the compulsory arbitration law? |
20816 | Yet what is the essential difference? |

30646 | And your father? |
30646 | But if there should be any? |
30646 | But what becomes of the difference between the lazy and the industrious? 30646 Yes,"interjects at this point a capitalist- minded reader,"that is all very well, but by what''legal principle''can society justify such a change?" |
30646 | And Jacob''s anger was kindled against Rachel; and he said, Am I in God''s stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb? |
30646 | And is it not similarly with the modern Labor Movement? |

30646 | And what is the picture presented by these? |
30646 | And who is it that thus raises his hand against the peasant''s property and independence? |
30646 | Are our women unfitter than the far lower negroes, to whom full political equality was conceded in North America? |
30646 | Are the efforts in these directions justified? |
30646 | Are they practical? |
30646 | Are we not counted of him strangers? |
30646 | Are we not in an age that rushes forward, so to speak, with seven- mile boots, and therefore causes all the foes of a new and better world to tremble? |

30646 | But are we to wonder at that? |
30646 | But how apply such a cure? |
30646 | But how if the deluge were to come before their departure from life? |
30646 | But how is it to- day in this bourgeois society? |
30646 | But who constituted the Roman Commonwealth? |
30646 | But why and wherefor? |
30646 | But why should that be the privilege of the"great souls"only, and not of the others also, who are no"great souls,"and can be none? |
30646 | By what right can woman be refused equality with man? |
30646 | By what right does any claim precedence over another? |
30646 | Called upon to cast her ballot, she will ask, What for? |
30646 | Can Germany perform the same feat alone, unaided? |

30646 | Did it consist of the subjugated peoples, the millions of slaves? |
30646 | Did not the Protestant Reformers and modern bourgeoisdom once face overpowering adversaries? |
30646 | Do events point in that direction? |
30646 | Does not the industrialist proceed on that plan? |
30646 | Erinnyes-- Else, thou accursed one, How nourished she thy life within her womb? |
30646 | Erinnyes-- How? |
30646 | He calls out to the rich:"Wretches that you are, what answer will you make to the divine Judge? |
30646 | How can justice be done to- day, when private interests dominate and the interests of the commonweal are made subservient? |
30646 | How could there be any"over- production"when there is no lack of capacity to consume, i. e., of wants that crave satisfaction? |
30646 | How could they discover any, with their short visits and without drawing upon medical advice? |
30646 | How do matters stand in Socialist society? |
30646 | How else can the youth be that is brought up in such an atmosphere? |
30646 | How many of those who live among these semi- savage races, do as much? |
30646 | How many parents are able to follow the course of their children''s education at school, and to take them under the arm in their schoolwork at home? |
30646 | How many workingmen do not allow themselves to be influenced and led without a will of their own? |
30646 | If both questions must be answered in the negative, then this third arises: How can these demands be met? |
30646 | If the question is answered in the negative, this other rises: Can modern society meet the demands? |
30646 | Is it not obvious that our social system suffers of serious ailments? |
30646 | Is not mankind properly divided? |
30646 | Is that right towards a man like me?" |
30646 | Many contrivances are, under the existing system of private enterprise, first of all, a question of money: can the business bear the expenditure? |

30646 | The ever- recurring question, what shall be cooked to- day? |
30646 | The question that does rise is, How high will the aspirations of society mount? |
30646 | The question then rises: Has modern society met the demands for a natural life, especially as concerns the female sex? |

30646 | Was the Social Democracy crippled because gagged and pinioned by exclusion laws, so that it could not budge? |
30646 | We ask again, Can this be called a rational state of things? |
30646 | We ask, Is such a marriage-- and their number is infinite-- not worse than prostitution? |
30646 | We consider the whole affair strictly confidential and as a matter of honor(? |
30646 | We now come to the other side of the question: Do people multiply indefinitely, and is that a necessity of their being? |
30646 | Were not one time the believers in Christianity a small minority? |
30646 | What becomes of the victims of our social conditions? |
30646 | What cares he about the commonwealth and its well- being? |
30646 | What does it? |
30646 | What more can you want? |
30646 | What of it? |
30646 | What say our agrarians to this opinion of their former political co- religionist? |
30646 | What say the adversaries of the theory of descent in the female line to this sketch drawn from the immediate present? |
30646 | What then? |
30646 | What was it that the Emperor Vespasian said at a somewhat similar juncture? |
30646 | What would become of the world? |
30646 | When does the slanderer''s tongue hold its peace? |
30646 | Whence came that other people? |
30646 | Whence comes it that the children of peasants differ from city children? |
30646 | Whence proceed all these scourges? |
30646 | Whence shall the means come for all that? |
30646 | Where are the private individuals, where the States, able to operate upon the requisite scale? |
30646 | Where is the spot at which could be said:"So far and no farther?" |
30646 | Which of those good old women dared think of occupying her mind with public affairs, as is now done by many women? |
30646 | Who can say where the line is to be drawn to our chemical, physical, physiologic knowledge? |
30646 | Who can tell how general conditions will then be, and what the demands of public interest will be? |
30646 | Who could blame her if, there also, as happens frequently in France, women are seen to waive formal matrimonial contracts? |
30646 | Who is to derive pleasure or satisfaction therefrom, seeing that society removes from him all sources of hatred? |
30646 | Who, to- day, would dare uphold such a position of woman as"natural"without exposing himself to the charge of belittling her? |
30646 | Whom for? |
30646 | Why exert themselves, if the wealth of their parents makes all effort seem superfluous? |
30646 | Why should not in future society the youth of the land, without distinction of sex, be enlisted for such necessary work? |
30646 | Why? |
30646 | Why? |
30646 | Will it pay? |
30646 | Would they mend matters? |
30646 | Wouldst thou renounce the holiest bond of all? |
30646 | [ 122] And how stands it in Paris? |
30646 | [ 180] What does Herr Eugene Richter say to this calculation? |
30646 | between the intelligent and the stupid?" |
30646 | sprechet, herre, wurre ez iht? |
30646 | the Spartan answered laughing:"How is it possible that there could be an adulterer in Sparta?" |
60222 | And he-- this Paul himself? |
60222 | And the best motive power? |
60222 | And there were many in the ship? |
60222 | And this Paul-- tell me-- what teacheth he concerning women? |
60222 | And while they were away the men would have a quiet time, eh? |
60222 | And you are helping-- you are one of them? |
60222 | By the way,said Sir Robert, casually, as they resumed their seats,"is Wardlaw with us?" |
60222 | Can we last as long? |
60222 | Do you believe in the theory of pre- existence? |
60222 | Dog of a Christian, are thy head and heart of stone? |
60222 | Eh, what d''ye mean? |
60222 | Father,cried the girl passionately, as she closed the Book,"Why did you keep it from me? |
60222 | How can a man love''em when he sees the mischief they''ve done by their ambitions and pertinacity? |
60222 | I''ll ask you one question,she exclaimed, in tones so shrill that here and there a laugh broke out:"Are we inferior to poor Tommy Atkins?" |
60222 | In whom thou dost believe? |
60222 | Is Mr. Renshaw still living-- is it_ really_ true that he is still alive? |
60222 | Is it your pleasure that this lady be heard further? |
60222 | Is not Paul the Apostle of Him who blessed the marriage feast of Cana? |
60222 | Is there danger? |
60222 | Is there no more to tell? |
60222 | Is this the first time you have felt like this? |
60222 | It is your advice? |
60222 | Must I, to- night? |
60222 | Once,she went on, hesitatingly,"the first time we went up in the_ Bladud_, you remember that night...?" |
60222 | See that, sir? 60222 See that?" |
60222 | So you''ve made the young lady''s acquaintance on the river? |
60222 | The storm had lasted long? |
60222 | Then he forbiddeth not to marry? |
60222 | Then why, O Lucius Flaccus, hast thou built here an altar to our Goddess Sul? |
60222 | We ca n''t get down? |
60222 | What about the Corps of Commissionaires? |
60222 | What about the old Household troops? |
60222 | What age would Renshaw be by this time? |
60222 | What do you mean? |
60222 | What does it mean? |
60222 | What would you do? 60222 What''s that?" |
60222 | What, I wonder, is the true philosophy of life? |
60222 | Where is he now-- is he ill, is he safe? |
60222 | Why do n''t you answer? 60222 Why not?" |
60222 | Why the devil do n''t you speak? 60222 Will the speaker favour us with the authority for her quotations?" |
60222 | Will you not cry out? |
60222 | Will you trust yourself to me? |
60222 | Would anyone like a sail? |
60222 | Yes, yes? |
60222 | You can steer? |
60222 | You mean your father? |
60222 | ***** How and why had this dastardly combined attack on England come to pass? |
60222 | And everywhere the question was asked:"Where is he? |
60222 | And if by any chance it should come to fighting at close quarters, had woman shown herself lacking in courage, or even in ferocity in such encounters? |
60222 | And now that the lifeless hand of the President had dropped the real sceptre, whose hand was to take it up? |
60222 | And what should she give in exchange for that submissive tender love of wife for husband which the Sacred Book declared to be the law of God? |
60222 | And, worse still, what might not she dare and do, as the champion and inciter of woman, if the head of the Government should die? |
60222 | But how''s the worm going to manage it?" |
60222 | But now? |
60222 | But what can we do without a leader in Parliament? |
60222 | But where was the leader of men? |
60222 | Call these creatures men? |
60222 | Come, man, what the deuce are you driving at?" |
60222 | Could these things be reconciled in the light of the revelation that had come to her? |
60222 | Did not a certain abbot of Iona go to Ireland to organise a movement against the custom of summoning women to join the standard and fight the enemy? |
60222 | Did not the crime of which she was convicted strike at the root of the religion of the people? |
60222 | Did you ever read how Balmerino faced the headsman after Culloden? |
60222 | Do you suppose we want an army of Amazons armed with lethal weapons to keep in order?" |
60222 | Does n''t that suggest an opportunity?" |
60222 | God in heaven, could it be truly that? |
60222 | Great God in heaven!--men call upon the name of God even when they profess to be agnostics-- could she be going to die? |
60222 | Had any confidential information been received from certain oriental visitors who, from time to time, had come to this country? |
60222 | Had he not sought by magical aid to soar aloft like the eagle, only to fall and be dashed to pieces on Minerva''s altar? |
60222 | He glanced at Wilton:"Ready?" |
60222 | He swore irritably, and then roared an inquiry:"Are you there? |
60222 | History has illustrated that over and over again?" |
60222 | How are we going to regulate international commerce? |
60222 | How shall he face the unfathomable whirlpool that yawns for the frail boat in which he is compelled to trust? |
60222 | I have read it, or did I dream it?" |
60222 | If he did not look out he would go there and get killed himself presently, and that would be a nice thing to happen, would n''t it? |
60222 | If one had repeated to most of these globe- trotters Gloster''s question in King Lear:"Dost thou know Dover?" |
60222 | In love with whom? |
60222 | Is it true he is still alive?" |
60222 | Is n''t nearly every man, in both services? |
60222 | It was her own voice that died away, and what was this mysterious sound-- rising from the valley with the mists that melted at the break of day? |
60222 | Linton, raising his own cap, turned towards the illustrious passenger:"Shall we start, sir?" |
60222 | Or could it be that they were running short of ammunition? |
60222 | She sighed and looked at him wistfully, then said appealingly:"You will come upstairs?" |
60222 | THE COUP D''ÉTAT? |
60222 | The voice that spake to the woman in the garden seemed to be speaking still:"What is this that thou hast done?" |
60222 | Then came another problem-- what was the right sort of motor? |
60222 | Then once more the Vice- President vehemently appealed to the audience:"Who will join the Amazons of England?" |
60222 | Then the Vice- President, in tones now piercing and tremulous, cried out:"Who will join the First Regiment of the Amazons of England?" |
60222 | There is something I can do for you in your trouble?" |
60222 | To what purpose do we expose our lives in war? |
60222 | To- morrow we''ll be just the same as ever, wo n''t we? |
60222 | Was it not an American, not an English, Admiral who had come to the rescue of the British colony? |
60222 | Was it the word"Forgive?" |
60222 | Was not blood thicker than water? |
60222 | Was the reign of woman to be inaugurated on new and bolder lines; or would man, in the nick of time, re- assert himself? |
60222 | Were not the American people our own kith and kin? |
60222 | Were they in for a lecture on geography? |
60222 | What about imports and exports? |
60222 | What could it mean? |
60222 | What did Wilton want? |
60222 | What did he say? |
60222 | What did these things betoken? |
60222 | What do you think? |
60222 | What is his good, and what is his evil? |
60222 | What is man in presence of the waterspout that towers from the ocean to the clouds? |
60222 | What is your advice?" |
60222 | What mad idea was this? |
60222 | What might not Lady Cat accomplish in the temporary absence of the President? |
60222 | What more natural than that most of the passengers should land and fill up the time by the inspection of the points of interest in the town? |
60222 | What of the Empire? |
60222 | What part of the coast is that down there?" |
60222 | What was he doing now? |
60222 | What was he trying to do? |
60222 | What was that silent log- like thing the waves were rolling yonder in the semi- darkness? |
60222 | What was there to be afraid of? |
60222 | What was this? |
60222 | What would it profit a woman to force herself out of her ordained place in the plan of creation? |
60222 | What''s the best air- ship that ever was built against a wind like this?" |
60222 | What''s this I hear about the Fort?" |
60222 | What, he vaguely wondered, was Wilton doing now? |
60222 | What, then, would be likely to limit her revenge or curb her ambition if an opportunity like the present could be made to serve her purpose? |
60222 | What? |
60222 | Where''s my book?" |
60222 | Which mine would be exploded first? |
60222 | Which shall it be?" |
60222 | Who are you?" |
60222 | Who can limit the life of the ego-- fix its beginning, or appoint its end?" |
60222 | Who could possibly credit such a tale? |
60222 | Who is it?" |
60222 | Who wants an air- ship calling for his parlour- maid at the attic window? |
60222 | Who wants thieves sailing up to his balcony? |
60222 | Who would dare to deny that women were as brave as men? |
60222 | Why did you do it?" |
60222 | Why do we defend our wives and sisters from a foreign enemy if Rome has tyrants who incite the people to violent and vindictive acts? |
60222 | Why had he not used it before? |
60222 | Why not?" |
60222 | Why not?" |
60222 | Why should you help me, unless I tell you all, everything-- everything, fully and frankly? |
60222 | Why was he sawing frantically, convulsively, at that tightened cord? |
60222 | Will you read this?" |
60222 | Would it be his turn next? |
60222 | You shall be very nice, and I shall forgive you, because, after all, I do love you, do n''t I?" |
60222 | and suppose, after all, poor Renshaw is dead?" |
60222 | exclaimed Herrick, springing to his feet,"do n''t you see one over yonder?" |
60222 | exclaimed the General,"were Thackeray and Dickens prejudiced? |
60222 | is that the_ Bladud_?" |
60222 | she asked, abruptly,"do you think it possible that in some former state of being you and I or others can have met before?" |
60222 | still the gods?" |
60222 | what was the matter? |
37351 | Does not that come to the same thing? |
37351 | For,said Liebknecht,"who could say what the_ Zukunft Staat_--the socialist State of the future-- is to be? |
37351 | What is the State? |
37351 | What is the reason,he asked himself,"that the paradise before my eyes conceals so much misery? |
37351 | ''Supposing you were a young man now,''said I,''could you walk into Manchester and do that again?'' |
37351 | And how do the Russian peasants settle the periodical repartition of the communal lands? |
37351 | And if it fail anywhere, how can he argue that it must succeed everywhere? |
37351 | And what, after all, was the latest dream of philosophical socialism but a world of communities like these? |
37351 | And why are not all dexterous, or, at least, why are they not much more dexterous than they now are? |
37351 | And why is the labour not socially useful? |
37351 | And why? |
37351 | And without such liberal management how is he to promote the spread of cultivation better than the present owners? |
37351 | And would it be greater or less than would remain after a like process applied, say, to a sovereign or to a nugget of gold? |
37351 | Are poverty and the various symptoms of poverty more acute in England than in more backward countries? |
37351 | Are the poor really getting poorer? |
37351 | Baboeuf saw no difficulty in working the scheme; was it not practised every day in the army, with 1,200,000 men? |
37351 | But do socializing bishops believe it to be just? |
37351 | But if Mr. George''s principle is true, could such a result have taken place at all? |
37351 | But if density of population is such a sure improver of production as Mr. George represents it to be elsewhere, why should it fail here? |
37351 | But the question is, does it imply any increase in the productive power of the soil? |
37351 | But what is equality? |
37351 | But what is of man''s creation? |
37351 | But will any one work such land for less than he can make in other industries? |
37351 | Can it be believed that the democracy which has overthrown the feudal system and vanquished kings will retreat before tradesmen and capitalists? |
37351 | Deduct from the rent of these reclaimed acres the value contributed by human labour, and how much would remain to represent the gift of God? |
37351 | Does he mean, because more things are now reckoned among the necessaries of life? |
37351 | Does he not promise us a new heaven and a new earth? |
37351 | Does it first raise wages at the expense of profits, and then raise profits at the expense of wages? |
37351 | Does it then at the same time strengthen the employer in his battle with the labourer? |
37351 | Does socialism offer a better guarantee for the realization of that ideal than the existing economy? |
37351 | Economists would solve his problem,"why in spite of increased productive power wages tend to a minimum that will give but a bare living?" |
37351 | For is not the soil of a small island or an inconsiderable country as eternal as the soil of a continent? |
37351 | For what, after all, is value? |
37351 | He refuses to take it, and why? |
37351 | He says of the fourth estate what Sieyès said of the third, What is the fourth estate? |
37351 | He was intensely disappointed, and asked,"When will this foolish people cast aside their lethargy?" |
37351 | He was not a citizen, and why should he have the feelings of one? |
37351 | How do you define socialism? |
37351 | How is it to be ascertained? |
37351 | Idolatry is a mistaken view of Divine things-- a distortion of the religious sentiment; but who would on that account call it Christian? |
37351 | If a rise of rent depends on a rise in the price of bread, what does a rise in the price of bread depend on? |
37351 | If crowding on the superior soils can make those soils indefinitely productive, why go farther and fare worse? |
37351 | In other words, by what is value and difference in value determined? |
37351 | In the matter of protection, for instance, how many policemen are we required to detail to a district? |
37351 | Is English pauperism greater now than it was before the"new productive forces"entered the country? |
37351 | Is Marx''s definition of it in the least correct? |
37351 | Is free education to go beyond the primary branches? |
37351 | Is it because he exerts more labour, more socially necessary time of labour? |
37351 | Is it because more time of labour has been expended in the preparation and apprenticeship of the higher paid functionaries? |
37351 | Is it equality when each man gets a coat of the same size, or is it not rather when each man gets a coat that fits him? |
37351 | Is nature the source of all this suffering, or is it man that is to blame for it? |
37351 | Is socialism, as Stahl and others represent, an inevitable corollary of democracy? |
37351 | Is that so? |
37351 | Is the average duration of life less? |
37351 | Is the general standard of living among the labouring classes lower? |
37351 | It advances money on easy terms to railway schemes; why should it not offer working men cheap loans for sound co- operative enterprises? |
37351 | It is a plain question of fact-- is poverty really increasing? |
37351 | It is a pure utopia, and why? |
37351 | Nothing? |
37351 | Now to all this there is one simple answer: why then resort to inferior soils at all? |
37351 | Now, have we such a power in electricity? |
37351 | Now, on what does this social estimate of the relative importance of commodities turn? |
37351 | Now, what is the least productive land in use? |
37351 | Or how great an army and navy are we to maintain? |
37351 | Or why has the judge a better salary than the policeman? |
37351 | The effect of the previous argument was to raise the question, What is the labourer entitled to get? |
37351 | The next question is, What, then, does the labourer actually get? |
37351 | Up to a certain point they may yield the same return at the same cost year after year in_ sæcula sæculorum_, but will they yield more? |
37351 | Value, then, is quantity of abstract labour, and now what is quantity of labour? |
37351 | We gather the quantity from the duration of exertion, but how is average productive power to be ascertained? |
37351 | What are the wounds a knife inflicts compared with the slow murder dispensed with refined cruelty throughout a being''s whole existence? |
37351 | What do we find? |
37351 | What is law, what is right, but a protection of the weak? |
37351 | What is the ideal of the working class? |
37351 | What is the sharp death- agony of an hour compared with the pangs of death protracted over twenty years? |
37351 | What length are you to go? |
37351 | What ought the fourth estate to be? |
37351 | What sensations must it cause in those poor men who, with all they hold dear, are day after day at the mercy of the accidents of market price? |
37351 | What would be the effect upon wages in England?'' |
37351 | What, then, he asked, was the Social Democracy to do? |
37351 | What, then, is to be the business of this formidable Social Democratic party? |
37351 | What, then, is value in exchange? |
37351 | What, then, is value? |
37351 | When San Francisco reaches the point where New York now is, who can doubt that there will also be ragged and barefooted children in her streets?" |
37351 | Where does this lent money come from? |
37351 | Who advances them? |
37351 | Who could foresee so much as the development of the existing German State for a single year?" |
37351 | Who is there among you that would not have gone to the death to defend her? |
37351 | Why are we now free from the old scourges of famine and famine prices? |
37351 | Why is an organizer of manual labour better paid than the manual labourer himself? |
37351 | Why is one kind of labour paid dearer than another? |
37351 | Why is the railway chairman better paid than the railway porter? |
37351 | Why should not the law stand at the labourer''s back, as it does at the capitalist''s, in enforcing what is right and just? |
37351 | Why? |
37351 | Will it stop now that it has grown so strong, and its adversaries so weak?" |
37351 | Will the social system, which will result from the process, be socialism? |
37351 | Would it be wise to imagine that a social movement, the causes of which lie so far back, can be checked by the efforts of one generation? |
37351 | Would then the word now be revolution? |
37351 | _ State Socialism and State Management._ What are the conditions of efficient State administration? |
37351 | and what need for any mission to the States to preach the socialist message to the Americans for the first time in their own tongue? |
37351 | but Shall we be any the worse for it? |
37351 | by the use of force? |
37351 | or do they believe it wrong for a man to live on interest, or rents, or profits? |
37351 | then where is the man who is not a pure and unadulterated socialist? |
17881 | ''Ivery day makes its own throuble?'' |
17881 | ''Shiver my timbers,''he said,''ye must have an anchorage in some of these parts? 17881 ''Where d''ye live, then?'' |
17881 | ''Where''s yer folks?'' 17881 ''Would you give up, then?'' |
17881 | A volume? |
17881 | Ah,I said,"you know me then?" |
17881 | And you? |
17881 | Are you a reporter? |
17881 | Are you going to do the decent thing? |
17881 | Aye,Mary said,"but how do ye know she is n''t jist around here somewhere, anyway?" |
17881 | D''ye believe I''ll know her whin I go? 17881 D''ye know what became ov''i m?" |
17881 | Did yer ever''ave a chum''oose name was Creedan? |
17881 | Did you learn anything else? |
17881 | Did you see that big fellow in a gray suit? |
17881 | Do you believe in the right of the workers to organize? 17881 Do you do that often?" |
17881 | Do you get tired? |
17881 | Do you know him? |
17881 | Do you know where she has gone? |
17881 | Do you remember the farm at Moylena? |
17881 | Does Mrs. G---- live here? |
17881 | Have you got the dough? |
17881 | He wudn''t be so d----d niggardly, wud He? |
17881 | How can one invent anything in this slave age? |
17881 | I mean-- tired of life? |
17881 | In Heaven''s name,I said,"what are you doing here?" |
17881 | Is it possible,I asked a policeman,"to get a clean bed for a night in this town for fifty cents?" |
17881 | Is there a view of the Hudson River from any of these hills? |
17881 | Look here, Franz,I said,"I want to know what you''ve been up to?" |
17881 | Maan, yer changed,he said,"are n''t you?" |
17881 | Maan,he said,"ye talk like quality-- d''ye live among thim?" |
17881 | Me too, hey? |
17881 | Now, will you wait for one moment till we talk it over? |
17881 | Now,he said,"you do n''t care how we raise your salary, do you?" |
17881 | Oh, yis, that''s thrue enough,my father said,"but Alec minds th''time whin it was blessin''enough to hev th''murphies-- don''t ye, boy?" |
17881 | Pardon me, sir,I said,"is n''t there a law in Georgia on the separation of the races?" |
17881 | Right here? |
17881 | Say, bub,said Gar, the bouncer, to me one day,"what ungodly hour of the mornin''d''ye git up?" |
17881 | Shure that''s what''s cracking m''own skull,he said;"where th''divil will ye sleep, anyway, at all, at all?" |
17881 | Social, I suppose, eh? |
17881 | Splendid,replied C----; and in the same breath he said,"say, you do n''t come around to the association; do you want your name kept on the roll?" |
17881 | Suppose the Lord should come now and find you reading that; what would you say to Him? |
17881 | Sure thing,he said,"do n''t you know me?" |
17881 | Sure-- aint you glad? |
17881 | The Holy Virgin? |
17881 | The Socialist? |
17881 | The man whose name is on your letterhead? |
17881 | Tired? 17881 Vell, you shut your---- maut or I smash your---- head, see?" |
17881 | Was I in a dream? 17881 Well, what are you going to do about it?" |
17881 | Well, what is it? |
17881 | What are your qualifications? |
17881 | What cheer, Condor? |
17881 | What d''ye mind best about her? |
17881 | What did you do with the loot? |
17881 | What have you been doing? |
17881 | What idea? |
17881 | What in''ell did''e mean by th''anchor''oldin''? |
17881 | What is it Dave? |
17881 | What is it, Pat? |
17881 | What is it? |
17881 | What is it? |
17881 | What kind of a Socialist are you? |
17881 | What kind of work do you want done? |
17881 | What shall I tell those workingmen you stand for? |
17881 | What you guff about? |
17881 | What''s his topic? |
17881 | What''s up? |
17881 | Where are you from? |
17881 | Where are you from? |
17881 | Where is he going? |
17881 | Where was it published? |
17881 | Where? |
17881 | Who is he? |
17881 | Who is that fellow at your bench? |
17881 | Who is that man? |
17881 | Who owns these pigs? |
17881 | Who will be the muckers under Socialism? |
17881 | Why a nickle for this one and a dime for the other? |
17881 | Why did I get a red card while most of the others got a green card? |
17881 | Why did you bring them to me? |
17881 | Why do n''t you ask him to talk? |
17881 | Why do n''t you get a move on you---- hey? |
17881 | Why do n''t you invent one? |
17881 | Why have n''t they? |
17881 | Why? |
17881 | Why? |
17881 | Will you introduce him, Doctor? |
17881 | Ye are, eh? |
17881 | Ye could n''t stay at home awhile? 17881 Ye do, hey? |
17881 | Yes, what about him? |
17881 | Yes-- but----"Say, have a cup of hot coffee, wo n''t you? |
17881 | Yes; do n''t you think you need it? |
17881 | You heard me''phone? |
17881 | ''Can this be true?'' |
17881 | ''What are you doing here?'' |
17881 | ''What is Revolution?'' |
17881 | ''Why does n''t he give you a place to sleep, then?'' |
17881 | A few months afterward this man, with tears in his eyes, said:"Mr. Irvine, whatever happens you will be my friend-- won''t you?" |
17881 | A man with a square paper hat on looked at me, and said:"''What''s up, little''un?'' |
17881 | And what wealth then shall be left us when none shall gather gold To buy his friend in the market and pinch and pine the sold? |
17881 | As I sat beside Father McGlyn in the pulpit, I said,"Father, how do you stand with the Pope, these days? |
17881 | But for whom shall we gather the gain? |
17881 | Come now, is n''t that so?" |
17881 | Could I influence and move him to a better life? |
17881 | Could I reach him? |
17881 | Could you afford me one cent to get some bread?" |
17881 | Do you fellows ever notice the church ads in the Sunday papers? |
17881 | Have they? |
17881 | He laughed and said:"''Whom do you know there?'' |
17881 | He looked at me for a moment as if in astonishment, and then he said:"Hello, bub, what''s de game?" |
17881 | He said of it:"Say, bub, if you ever strike an old gazabo as soft as dat one, lemme know, will ye?" |
17881 | His intuition was keen enough to perceive that the trouble was mental and as I took the coffee he said:"Discouraged a bit, hey?" |
17881 | I got my coat and hat, went over to the janitor''s door, but before I could open my mouth, his wife said:"What''s up?" |
17881 | I made a motion; he gripped me tightly, whispering in my ear:"Ask God onct in a while to let me be with yer mother-- will ye, boy?" |
17881 | I served the lunch and overheard the following conversation:"Have you a signal man by the name of Hicks-- Billy Hicks-- on board?" |
17881 | I''ve bin skinnin''a dead hoss an brot ye d''skin for a birfday present, see?" |
17881 | If Capital has forty- nine suckers, why not let Labour have one?" |
17881 | If not, what was the use of trying my theological programme on others? |
17881 | Irvine?" |
17881 | Is that so?" |
17881 | It was a Monday morning, and his first words were:"Well, what did you do yesterday?" |
17881 | Occasionally he would turn around and say:"How''s it goin'', yer riverence?" |
17881 | One day Dowling was walking along the Bowery when a hand was laid roughly on his shoulder and a voice said:"Ai n''t you Dowling?" |
17881 | One evening I asked him what he knew about Jesus and he replied,"Ai n''t''ee th''bloke as they swears about?" |
17881 | Part of my address was a series of serious questions:"Will this movement raise the tone of society? |
17881 | So I did an''I''ve been on de dead level ever since-- ain''t I, boss?" |
17881 | Splendid weather we''re having, is n''t it?" |
17881 | There was a loud laugh, then a miner asked:"Air ye posin''for yer photo, mister?" |
17881 | To what mysterious doings am I to become an eye- witness to- night? |
17881 | Well, I hain''t, see? |
17881 | What I want to suggest is this: A dozen of you get together; write a note to your masters and ask them if that belief applies to_ you_?" |
17881 | What are you coming for?" |
17881 | What can it mean? |
17881 | What does it matter who brings it to pass or how it comes? |
17881 | What is the status of the case?" |
17881 | What matters it about Canon, Chapter, Dean and Prebend? |
17881 | What means this panther- like vigilance? |
17881 | What more can men do? |
17881 | What''s the matter with the water?" |
17881 | When all was quiet, the bouncer said to me:"What did ye tink of it, boss, hey?" |
17881 | Where d''ye sleep nights?'' |
17881 | Who will give the world a novel or a book dealing with this terrific problem? |
17881 | Who will tell millions of young men around the age of twenty that they can not burn their candle at both ends? |
17881 | Who would expect them? |
17881 | Why all this secrecy? |
17881 | Will it diminish intemperance? |
17881 | Will it divide or unite the world? |
17881 | Will it find the people uneducated and leave them educated? |
17881 | Will it increase mutual confidence? |
17881 | Will it increase the love of truth or the power of superstition or self- deception? |
17881 | Will it leave the minds of men clearer and more enlightened, or will it add another element of confusion to the chaos? |
17881 | Will it tend after all to elevate or lower the moral sentiments of mankind? |
17881 | Will the voice of its leader be lifted in the cause of justice and humanity? |
17881 | Would I take lessons in healing? |
17881 | Ye look skeered, too, do n''t yer-- hey?" |
17881 | You is jest Dagoes, ai n''t you?" |
17881 | You remember that funeral business?" |
17881 | _ Alexandra_, Ashore at Cattaro]"Hey, Sandy, shoot off one of them things to Mary, will ye?" |
17881 | he laughed,"d''ye tink I kilt some ol''sucker for''is money-- hey? |
35687 | 17. Who managed the receipts and expenditures, and were they honestly managed? 35687 And here comes in the question, What is a life in accordance with Christ''s commandments? |
35687 | And the_ breeches_ sometimes, I suppose? |
35687 | But these functions of reason, do they carry within themselves the pledge of their own continued health and harmonious action? 35687 Can we make any approximation to axiomatical truth for ourselves? |
35687 | Do you hold to marriage? |
35687 | Have you any schools? |
35687 | How about women? |
35687 | Is there some secret leaven in this conjugal mixture, which declares all other union to be out of the possible affinities? 35687 It is often asked, What are the peculiarities, and what the advantages of the Hopedale Community? |
35687 | Now what do we gather from this? 35687 Schools? |
35687 | Then you go back to nearly the first principles of government, and acknowledge the necessity of some controlling power other than individual will? |
35687 | _ What are its Advantages?_1. |
35687 | ''***"There may be some persons at a distance, who will ask, To what degree has this Community gone into operation? |
35687 | ''If you love not man, whom you have seen, how can you love God whom you have not seen?'' |
35687 | ''It was taken for a debt,''said he,''and what else was I to do to get rid of it?'' |
35687 | (?) |
35687 | (?) |
35687 | ***"There_ are_ men and women, who have dared to say to one another, Why not have our daily life organized on Christ''s own idea? |
35687 | ***** Shall we then turn back in despair, and give it up that Association on the large scale is impossible? |
35687 | After supper I was standing near some men in the sitting- room, when one said to another,''How high is your God?'' |
35687 | After this luminous introduction, Mr. Dana, the editor of the_ Sun_, followed with the article ensuing:"WILL IT SUCCEED? |
35687 | Again:''If ye love not one another, how can ye be my disciples?'' |
35687 | Am I to be astonished by hearing sensible men declare, because mankind have been the victims of false relations, that these things are impracticable? |
35687 | And all for the benefit of whom? |
35687 | And are we all at once to abandon, to deny, to destroy this supposed stronghold of virtue? |
35687 | Any kind of government? |
35687 | Any particular trades? |
35687 | Are men forever to be such consummate fools as to neglect even the colossal profits of Association? |
35687 | Are you a man? |
35687 | As these two principles are thus expanding side by side, the question arises, Which on the whole is prevailing and destined to prevail? |
35687 | At what season did they go to examine the country? |
35687 | But about the committee which you say consisted of an artist, mechanic and a doctor; what report did they make concerning the land? |
35687 | But might it not be enforced that the two family ideas really neutralize each other? |
35687 | But must not, therefore, individual( or dual) union cease? |
35687 | But the question returns after all, Which is primary and which is secondary? |
35687 | But with this theory how shall we account for the failure of Brook Farm and Hopedale? |
35687 | Can any example of success be found where this second condition is not present? |
35687 | Can it be, we ask ourselves, that Owen had such conflicts with whiskey- tippling, but never a fight with the love- mania? |
35687 | Can persons take their earnings away with them when they leave? |
35687 | Could not such a sum be raised? |
35687 | Did the associates agree or disagree, and in what? |
35687 | Did they obtain aid from without? |
35687 | Do I censure their want of foresight? |
35687 | Do I regret this trial? |
35687 | Do you assist runaway slaves? |
35687 | Do you call dis Community? |
35687 | Do you express opinions and principles as a body? |
35687 | Do you know any persons in your neighborhood who will for one year, three years, five years, contribute for this end? |
35687 | Do you object to religionists? |
35687 | Does it contain within itself the elements of success? |
35687 | Does the majority govern the minority? |
35687 | For before the judgment- seat of his sayings, how do our governments, our trades, our etiquettes, even our benevolent institutions and churches look? |
35687 | For instance, I require such information as the following questions would call forth, viz:"1. Who originated it, or how was it originated? |
35687 | Had you any capitalists among you? |
35687 | Have the Brocton people enough of it to carry them safely through? |
35687 | Have you any delegated power? |
35687 | Have you any form of society or test for admission of members? |
35687 | He very rapidly asked me the object of my book: what good would it do? |
35687 | Here is a specimen of our dialogue:"Do you make laws? |
35687 | His own opinion of the cause of the catastrophe, he gives in the following words:"What were the causes of these failures? |
35687 | How could it be otherwise? |
35687 | How does it appear that he"combined the enunciation of general principles of social organization with actual experiments?" |
35687 | How long did they keep together? |
35687 | How was the land obtained? |
35687 | How were members admitted? |
35687 | How, then, can it be hoped that there is universal affection sufficient to unite many such families in one body for the common good? |
35687 | I hope we do not disturb you? |
35687 | If God be for us, of which we have sufficient evidence, who can prevail against us? |
35687 | If successful, what were the causes of success? |
35687 | In our societies, with their constantly recurring revulsions and ruin, would they not be wise in so doing?" |
35687 | In the name of history we ask, Why has not George William Curtis himself made the permanent record? |
35687 | Is dis common property? |
35687 | Is it founded upon notions that promise any considerable advance upon the present form of society? |
35687 | Is it not quite certain that the human heart can not be set in two places? |
35687 | Is it questioned whether the family arrangement of mankind is to be preserved? |
35687 | Is this mixture of male and female so very potent, as to hinder universal or even general union? |
35687 | Is this the right way? |
35687 | Must you be Grahamites? |
35687 | Now how is this to be done? |
35687 | Of course it was necessary, before they could be admitted, to decide the question,''Can they be useful to the Association?'' |
35687 | Or is their religion of too transcendental a character to form a sure and tenacious cement for their social structure? |
35687 | Or will a combination of both keep its place in the world hereafter, as it has done hitherto? |
35687 | Pray, sir, how and where did the Sylvania Association originate? |
35687 | Religion is their first principle; what is their second? |
35687 | Shall we clear the generals, and leave the poor soldiers to be called volunteer fools, without the comfort even of being in good company? |
35687 | The question for the future is, Will the Revivalists go forward into Socialism; or will the Socialists go forward into Revivalism? |
35687 | The reader will perhaps expect us to say something from our stand- point, in answer to Mr. Dana''s question,"Will it succeed?" |
35687 | Their education, natural intelligence and morality? |
35687 | They were never asked when applying for membership,''Do you believe so and so?'' |
35687 | Was all the property put into common stock? |
35687 | Was it free or mortgaged? |
35687 | Was there a written or printed constitution or laws? |
35687 | Were pledges, fines, oaths, or any coercive means used? |
35687 | Were the new circumstances of the associates superior or inferior to the circumstances they enjoyed previous to their associating? |
35687 | What are the terms of admission? |
35687 | What have you to say of them? |
35687 | What if Napoleon had written out a programme for the battle of Austerlitz, and then left one of his aids- de- camp to superintend the actual fighting? |
35687 | What is there in all this that entitles St. Simon to a place among the theoretico- practicals? |
35687 | What kind of a theory of chemistry can a man write without a laboratory? |
35687 | What more could be asked from nature? |
35687 | What particular person or persons took the lead? |
35687 | What religious belief, and if any, how preached and practised? |
35687 | What then has been Fourier''s function? |
35687 | What then shall we say of the rank- and- file that formed themselves into Phalanxes and marched into the wilderness to the music of Fourierism? |
35687 | What was the difficulty? |
35687 | What was the number of persons in the Association? |
35687 | What were its means in land and money? |
35687 | What were its principles and objects? |
35687 | What were their trades, occupations and amount of skill? |
35687 | What were they, and who got them when the society left? |
35687 | What will the next ten years bring forth?" |
35687 | When and where did the Association commence its experiment? |
35687 | When and why did they break up? |
35687 | When he had concluded I asked if those who wished to join the society were expected to acknowledge a belief in all the articles of their faith? |
35687 | Where shall we end? |
35687 | Where was the mistake? |
35687 | Who after this can be so cold as not to bid them good speed? |
35687 | Who ever had such motive for action? |
35687 | Who owned it? |
35687 | Who so niggardly as to withhold from them their mite? |
35687 | Who so ungenerous as to speak to their disparagement? |
35687 | Why did they fail? |
35687 | Why has not George Ripley taken the story out of the mouths of the sneerers? |
35687 | Why not begin to move the mountain of custom and convention? |
35687 | Will you not aid? |
35687 | Would Mr. Brisbane repeat such a farce?" |
35687 | _ C._--But you encouraged capitalists to join your society? |
35687 | _ C._--Does this not result from ignorance of the principles, or a want of faith in them? |
35687 | _ C._--How long did the Association remain on the place? |
35687 | _ C._--How much stock did the members take? |
35687 | _ C._--Was his theory the society''s practice? |
35687 | _ C._--What improvements were upon it, and what were the conditions of sale? |
35687 | _ C._--What were the qualifications of the men who were appointed to select the location? |
35687 | _ C._--When did the members proceed to the domain, and how did they progress there? |
35687 | _ E.H.H._--How did your company succeed in their new movement? |
35687 | _ E.H.H._--Would it not have been better if your company of thirty had been patient, and gone on quietly till the others were converted to your views? |
35687 | _ Requiescat in pace!_ Where is the Phoenix Association that is to arise from its ashes? |
35687 | and if so which will be primary and which secondary, and how will they be harmonized? |
35687 | and that means, which is primary in the order of truth, and which is secondary? |
35687 | if so can you send me a copy? |
35687 | in Owenism or Fourierism? |
35687 | that man can not worship at two altars? |
35687 | was there any standard by which to judge them, or any property qualification necessary? |
35687 | what was it for? |
41405 | ''Does not this prove that capitalist production creates a surplus product for which there is no room on the internal market? |
41405 | ''How can the entire capitalist class accumulate money under such circumstances? |
41405 | ''Is n''t there a chance to make a little profit? |
41405 | ''Would saving be able to produce this stick?'' |
41405 | ''[ 173] If this is true, how can there be any accumulation of capital? |
41405 | ''[ 190] What would MacCulloch have to advise in view of such an agrarian crisis in Southern Europe? |
41405 | ''[ 393] Where could the ruined American farmer turn? |
41405 | ( 2) Q.: Where do the capitalists get the money for the realisation of capitalised surplus value? |
41405 | ( 3) Q.: How did the money come into the country in the first place? |
41405 | And of what does this surplus- product consist? |
41405 | And of what does this surplus- value consist? |
41405 | And who requires these additional means of production? |
41405 | And why? |
41405 | And why? |
41405 | Aside from this, where does the money come from? |
41405 | But could anyone increase his consumption as rapidly and indefinitely as the progress of labour productivity makes the surplus value increase? |
41405 | But does this diagram show a surplus product to come into being? |
41405 | But how large a family? |
41405 | But if this great public is essentially characterised as consuming the surplus value, whence does it obtain the means to buy? |
41405 | But if we ask:''What are these wages for the workers who have received them?'' |
41405 | But now the question arises: who is to get these indigestible items in the course of general distribution? |
41405 | But what about the consumption of society? |
41405 | But what is the position in real life? |
41405 | But what of the remaining surplus value, the part that is accumulated? |
41405 | But who can buy the products incorporating the other, the capitalised part of the surplus value? |
41405 | But who could have bought their surplus product? |
41405 | But who else could provide the demand for the commodities incorporating the capitalised surplus value? |
41405 | Can one actually talk of total social capital of society as an entity, and if so, what is the real meaning of this concept? |
41405 | Could it be that there is too much of one kind of produce and too little of another, as Say and Ricardo would have it? |
41405 | First and foremost where do the B''s get the cash to buy an additional product from the A''s? |
41405 | For whom can it be destined? |
41405 | Has it any real bearing on the problems of actual life? |
41405 | Has not England, by forgetting men for things, sacrificed the end to the means? |
41405 | Have they had any other effect than to make every class partake of care, privation and the danger of complete ruin? |
41405 | He exclaims:''Whose demand? |
41405 | Here we must ask first of all: what is the starting point of accumulation? |
41405 | How can it be assured that every one of these factors increases in the right proportion? |
41405 | How can it be possible under these circumstances to construct anything in the nature of a total capital of society? |
41405 | How can this take place, leaving cycles and crises out of consideration? |
41405 | How can we overcome this blatant contradiction? |
41405 | How could production-- so divided and yet so powerful-- conceivably estimate in good time what will be enough? |
41405 | How could the entrepreneurs of the world recognise the limits beyond which the market would cease to be healthy? |
41405 | How does he himself monetise this surplus- portion of his product? |
41405 | How does this affect the process of reproduction? |
41405 | How is it done? |
41405 | How then is it that capitalist expansion had not yet( in 1912) shown any sign of slackening? |
41405 | How will the material relations of reproduction be adjusted? |
41405 | How, in terms of capitalism, does society create out of its annual labour a_ greater_ amount of capital than it formerly possessed? |
41405 | How, then, could their labour power provide them with a living? |
41405 | I ask: Do the capitalists perhaps give away their products to foreigners for nothing, throw it into the sea, maybe? |
41405 | If Sismondi exclaims in the face of Ricardo''s doctrine:''What, is wealth to be all, and man a mere nothing? |
41405 | If accumulation does take place, demand will absorb output, as the model shows, but what is it that makes accumulation take place? |
41405 | If we ask a capitalist:''What are the wages you pay your workers?'' |
41405 | Is it explained just because we can put the mathematical proportions of accumulation on paper? |
41405 | May not this sum suffice to monetise the surplus- value? |
41405 | On this new conception[ of Mac''s] there is a surplus of products, an advantage from labour-- to whom will it accrue? |
41405 | Rodbertus is ready with this answer:''What were the workers to do after their emancipation other than to agree to these regulations? |
41405 | So the surplus product of Departments I and II must be bought-- by whom? |
41405 | The masters or the workers in town or country? |
41405 | The production of what products? |
41405 | The question is: How does he maintain his surplus- value, not, how does he divide the money later after he has secured it? |
41405 | The question still remains: Where does the money come from, which the various B''s( I) withdrew from the circulation and accumulated? |
41405 | This brings us back to the old question: How, and by whom, is the accumulated surplus value to be realised? |
41405 | Ultimately, the exorbitant interest had to be paid somehow, but how-- where were the means to come from? |
41405 | We should not ask, accordingly: Where does the money required for realising the surplus value come from? |
41405 | Well then, who requires these additional consumer goods? |
41405 | Were they simply to grab some of the capital existing in the society for their maintenance? |
41405 | What buyers, then, does he advance for this new luxury production? |
41405 | What does he think about, then? |
41405 | What does this mean? |
41405 | What had provided the capital for these enterprises? |
41405 | What happens to the products of Department II which are then left over? |
41405 | What has gone wrong? |
41405 | What is income, and what is capital? |
41405 | What is it precisely that constitutes this problem of the reproduction of total capital? |
41405 | What is the fruit of this immense accumulation of wealth? |
41405 | What is the nature of the total capital of a society? |
41405 | What kind of people are we thinking of when we speak of an increase in the population? |
41405 | What motive have the capitalists for enlarging their stock of real capital? |
41405 | What will become of the capitalised surplus value? |
41405 | What, then, could the workers have done? |
41405 | What, then, has thrown a spanner into the works, why the crisis? |
41405 | What, then, is this surplus value that it should interest the capitalist for its own sake? |
41405 | Whence the demand for the accumulated surplus value? |
41405 | Where can this additional labour be found? |
41405 | Where does II get the money for this? |
41405 | Where does the additional money come from, by which the additional surplus- value now contained in the form of commodities is to be realised? |
41405 | Where does the demand come from which keeps accumulation going? |
41405 | Where does the money for this purpose come from? |
41405 | Where is this continually increasing demand to come from, which in Marx''s diagram forms the basis of reproduction on an ever rising scale? |
41405 | Where, for instance, are the organisations, the up- to- date statistical bureaux and the like to help them in this task? |
41405 | Where, then, could we find this new capital which may perhaps be much more considerable than that required by agriculture?... |
41405 | Where, then, does the accumulation of wealth make itself felt as a public benefit? |
41405 | Where, then, does the additional money come from?--the £ 100 the capitalists need to realise their own surplus value? |
41405 | Who will buy the commodities in which it is hidden? |
41405 | Who, then, realises the permanently increasing surplus value? |
41405 | Whose satisfaction? |
41405 | Why is this? |
41405 | Why, come to that, does England require an external market? |
41405 | Why? |
41405 | Will the others be able to keep it from them? |
41405 | Will what they want be the grave of modern civilisation? |
41405 | With what object? |
41405 | Yet Bulgakov overlooks the principal problem: who exactly is to profit by an expansion such as that whose mechanism he examines? |
41405 | Yet would it not be very easy to make good this loss in means of production which results from our example? |
41405 | [ 294] But then, is it not beyond any doubt that some such''third persons''exist in every capitalist society? |
41405 | [ 90] Two questions now arise:( 1) by whom should the money be owned, and( 2) how much of it should there be? |
41405 | _ Suum cuique_--had this not been the motto of Rodbertus? |
41405 | accumulate, for whose sake do they produce? |
41405 | and what does he want to exchange his hops for? |
41405 | but: Where are the consumers for this surplus value? |
41405 | can we trace income, wholly or in part, back to the stick as its_ cause_, may we consider it, wholly or in parts, as a_ product_ of the stick? |
41405 | into it? |
41405 | into it? |
41405 | not consumption but capitalisation of part of the surplus value? |
41405 | or, as Marx would have it: Whence the money to pay for the accumulated surplus value? |
41405 | the workers as wages, or the capitalists as profits of enterprise? |
41405 | to expand production, instead of squandering it altogether? |
16897 | (_ Aside_, I say, old fellow, what game are you up to now?) |
16897 | (_ Aside_: I wonder what all that row is about? |
16897 | (_ Aside_: Let''s see, what did we agree was the likeliest way?) |
16897 | (_ Aside_: Then why the devil did he say from one shop when his evidence was taken before?) |
16897 | (_ Aside_: True for you, old Benson, or else how could I have subpoenaed you?) |
16897 | (_ To_ ST.) You were an eye- witness of that? |
16897 | (_ aside_: Oh, what terrible revenge is he devising for me?) |
16897 | (_ looking at him_) But I say, what''s the matter with you? |
16897 | All of them? |
16897 | And did you believe it? |
16897 | And did you see the second loaf tumble down? |
16897 | And was it exciting? |
16897 | And_ why_? |
16897 | Anything else? |
16897 | Are we justified in thinking that the prisoner was speaking metaphorically? |
16897 | Are you pleading, or are you not pleading? |
16897 | Armed? |
16897 | But how can I behave decently when I''m dead? |
16897 | But how_ am_ I to live? |
16897 | But what are you going to do with me, then? |
16897 | But what at, since you object to lawyers? |
16897 | But who is going to shoot you? |
16897 | But you do now? |
16897 | Can I do anything to help you? |
16897 | Can you remember any other words he said? |
16897 | Can you remember the exact words he used? |
16897 | Can you repeat anything he said? |
16897 | Citizen, what''s the matter? |
16897 | Constable Potlegoff, at how many do you estimate the dense crowd at Beadon Road, when I obstructed? |
16897 | Constable, did you see this robbery? |
16897 | Could you get near him? |
16897 | Could you hear what he said? |
16897 | Did she go into the shop to take them? |
16897 | Did they oppose your search? |
16897 | Did they plot anything dreadful? |
16897 | Did you arrest them? |
16897 | Did you find any documents or papers on him when he was arrested? |
16897 | Did you find out where? |
16897 | Did you find them? |
16897 | Did you gather whose head it was that they were speaking of? |
16897 | Did you hear what the prisoner was saying to the policeman-- who, by the way, was, I suspect, only shamming drunkenness? |
16897 | Did you know what that meant? |
16897 | Did you search for them there? |
16897 | Do you call any other witnesses, Mr. Hungary? |
16897 | Do you call witnesses? |
16897 | Do you find the prisoner at the bar"Guilty"or"Not Guilty"? |
16897 | Do you remember the words I used? |
16897 | Do you see the policeman in Court? |
16897 | Do you want to ask the witness anything? |
16897 | Do? |
16897 | Doing? |
16897 | Enough, woman? |
16897 | From different shops, or from one? |
16897 | Have you heard him suggest any means of doing all this? |
16897 | Have you heard the prisoner speaking? |
16897 | Have you no sense of decency, sir? |
16897 | Have you seen the prisoner before? |
16897 | Have you the heart to say such things to a man whom you are going to shoot in a few minutes? |
16897 | Have you witnesses to call? |
16897 | How are you going to punish me? |
16897 | How can I help you? |
16897 | How could we have one? |
16897 | How did she take them? |
16897 | How do you like it, old fellow? |
16897 | How many were present at that meeting of the Socialist League where we were plotting to make the Queen take in washing? |
16897 | How many were present? |
16897 | How_ can_ you talk such nonsense? |
16897 | I must write my self down a smoutch-- smoutch? |
16897 | I say, do n''t you remember me, citizen? |
16897 | I''ve said enough: I did n''t steal the loaves-- and if I had a done, where was the harm? |
16897 | In which he took part? |
16897 | Is Beadon Road a frequented thoroughfare? |
16897 | Is that agreed to, neighbours? |
16897 | Is the prisoner defended? |
16897 | Is there anything else? |
16897 | Is this unpleasant business agreed to? |
16897 | It was in the street that you saw the three loaves fall down? |
16897 | Lastly, when I told you in the public- house that we were two millions strong, were you drunk or sober? |
16897 | Like this? |
16897 | Londoner, eh? |
16897 | Meaning, doubtless, that they had had an inkling of your search and had sold the arms? |
16897 | My lord, have you been present, in disguise, at a meeting of the Socialist League in 13 Farringdon Road? |
16897 | My lord, you said that you were shocked at what the prisoner said: what was the nature of his discourse? |
16897 | Need I point out to you at any length, then, the danger of allowing criminals, offenders against the sacred rights of property, to go at large? |
16897 | No? |
16897 | Not fancy work? |
16897 | Now let me ask you, if that matters, is Beadon Road a thronged thoroughfare? |
16897 | One after another? |
16897 | Plain washing? |
16897 | Prisoner at the bar, what have you to say? |
16897 | Prisoner, do you want to re- examine the witnesses? |
16897 | Prisoner, do you wish to ask the Constable any questions? |
16897 | Prisoner, what is the matter with you? |
16897 | Prisoner, why do n''t you answer? |
16897 | Professor Tyndall, have you seen me before? |
16897 | Punish you? |
16897 | Rabbits and hares some of them, as why should he not? |
16897 | Should we hurt his feelings by being a little merry in his presence now? |
16897 | Spare you, citizen? |
16897 | Stop a bit, though; where''s the Clerk of the Court? |
16897 | They''re good to fasten up boats with, and for carts, and such like; so why should we waste them by ornamenting you with them? |
16897 | Those who live in this metropolis must have their bowels drawn out-- is that right? |
16897 | Was I drunk? |
16897 | Was I sober? |
16897 | Was he drunk or sober? |
16897 | Was that the only occasion on which you heard him speaking? |
16897 | Well, can you tell me what he was saying? |
16897 | Well, constable, did you see the woman take the loaves? |
16897 | Well, did I say anything about bowels? |
16897 | Well, do you wish to question the witnesses? |
16897 | Well, does n''t that mean the same thing? |
16897 | Well, my good woman, what have you to say to this? |
16897 | Well, my lord, were you pleased with what you saw and heard? |
16897 | Well, neighbours, what''s the business to- day? |
16897 | Well, neighbours, what''s to be said? |
16897 | Well, sergeant, you saw this woman steal the loaves? |
16897 | Well, what did I say? |
16897 | Well, what do you think of a judge, old fellow? |
16897 | Well? |
16897 | Were there a thousand persons present? |
16897 | What am I to do? |
16897 | What am I to do? |
16897 | What am I to do?) |
16897 | What can I do to help you? |
16897 | What did they do? |
16897 | What do they do with you, you blooming old idiot, when you goes abroad and waddles through the Loover? |
16897 | What do you want to know for? |
16897 | What does it all mean, Bill? |
16897 | What does the fellow mean? |
16897 | What else? |
16897 | What is that you said, sir? |
16897 | What is the use of your denying it, when your own witness gives evidence of it? |
16897 | What is to be done with him? |
16897 | What matter are they to take into their hands? |
16897 | What the deuce could I do with a servant? |
16897 | What was he doing there? |
16897 | What was he doing? |
16897 | What''s that noise outside? |
16897 | What''s that to you? |
16897 | What''s the matter? |
16897 | What''s the odds? |
16897 | What''s the use of_ saying_ anything to it? |
16897 | What''s this, citizen? |
16897 | What''s_ he_ been doing, I wonder? |
16897 | What, now? |
16897 | What, now? |
16897 | What? |
16897 | What_ can_ you be afraid of? |
16897 | What_ is_ the matter? |
16897 | When do we begin wheat harvest? |
16897 | When was that? |
16897 | Where? |
16897 | Where? |
16897 | Who brought you there? |
16897 | Who was I with? |
16897 | Who''s hurting you, old gentleman? |
16897 | Why Nupkins, what''s this? |
16897 | Why, my lord? |
16897 | Why, on earth, should I murder you? |
16897 | Why, what ails the man? |
16897 | Why, what has he been doing? |
16897 | Why, what next? |
16897 | Wo n''t you save all further trouble by hanging me, my lord? |
16897 | Woman, woman, have you anything more to say? |
16897 | Would it have been easy for any one to pass through the crowd? |
16897 | Would it, indeed? |
16897 | Would you listen to me if I did? |
16897 | Yes, so it was in the street that you saw the loaves fall down? |
16897 | Yes,_ after_ she took it off the counter, in the street? |
16897 | Yes; speaking: to how many people? |
16897 | You heard him arranging with others for a rising of the lower orders? |
16897 | You heard what I said, my lord? |
16897 | You noticed her take all three loaves? |
16897 | You say it was a dense crowd: how dense? |
16897 | You say that the audience was very small; that was at first; but did it not increase as time went on? |
16897 | You say that you could n''t understand their jokes: but could you understand them when they were in earnest? |
16897 | Your Grace, were you present at the meeting at Beadon Road where I was arrested? |
16897 | _ And what''s the craft whereby ye live_? |
16897 | _ How crown ye excellence of worth_? |
16897 | _ How deal ye, then, with pleasure and pain_? |
16897 | _ How fares it, then, with high and low_? |
16897 | _ Jugged_? |
16897 | _ To_ FREEMAN) But who is to employ me? |
16897 | _ What gain that lordship''s past and done_? |
16897 | _ You_ can bear_ her_ troubles well enough, ca n''t you, old fat guts? |
16897 | anybody against it? |
16897 | did it surprise you? |
16897 | have they got hold of that story, then?) |
16897 | have you no punishment but death, then? |
16897 | how can I call witnesses to swear that I did n''t steal the loaves? |
16897 | how can we punish you? |
16897 | is it? |
16897 | there is, is there? |
16897 | what am I to do? |
16897 | what am I to do? |
16897 | what do you mean? |
16897 | what''s that? |
16897 | what_ is_ going on? |
16897 | who would be the jailer? |
19150 | ''And you made those bricks he sold?'' 19150 ''And your propaganda programme,''I ventured,''is as strong and far- reaching as ever?'' |
19150 | ''Are the members of your local prepared to take over and conduct wisely and well the affairs of your town and county? 19150 ''Are you trying to get me a little conviction, also, Judge?'' |
19150 | ''But I say, how much will the boss sell those bricks for?'' 19150 ''But did n''t you make them?'' |
19150 | ''But where does he get the money to pay you with?'' 19150 ''But why do you make them, if you do n''t intend to use them for anything?'' |
19150 | ''But why does n''t the Socialist administration take control of industry and commerce, and put the interests out of power?'' 19150 ''But wo n''t the Third Internationale send its Russian agitators abroad then, thus making it unnecessary for you to come here?'' |
19150 | ''Did he dig the clay hole?'' 19150 ''Do n''t know what you are going to do with your own bricks?'' |
19150 | ''Do n''t you think you''d better come inside?... 19150 ''How long will it take you to make them?'' |
19150 | ''How much does the boss pay you for working so hard?'' 19150 ''How should I know? |
19150 | ''If Mr. Debs were elected in 1920, how would you proceed to inaugurate[12] him, as he is serving a twenty- year sentence?'' 19150 ''Is it part of the Socialist Party plans to use the general strike to back up political action?'' |
19150 | ''Oh, did n''t he make the kiln?'' 19150 ''Then how comes it that the boss owns them?'' |
19150 | ''What are the bricks for?'' 19150 ''Why do they dig clay holes?'' |
19150 | ''Why? 19150 And what happened? |
19150 | Do you know that a regular secret service system is being employed by these''bosses''to hunt down the undesirables? 19150 Shall we honor the Massachusetts militiamen who, without the slightest provocation, murdered a young worker? |
19150 | Shall we pray to a power not human For guidance miraculous When the nearest man or woman Will give help, and without that fuss? 19150 The fear that weighs upon the world of Capitalism and the diplomats in Paris is: Who next? |

19150 | Why do you not go away from here? |
19150 | Why the sudden change of front? 19150 Why, then, hesitate to affiliate with them?" |
19150 | You are still alive? |
19150 | ''What for?'' |
19150 | ..."''Do you uphold and approve of, as a leader of the Socialist Party, the words that Mr. Debs pronounced, and for which he was convicted?'' |
19150 | ..."''Have you any respect at all for the decision of the tribunal to the contrary?'' |
19150 | And for what? |
19150 | And was this to give Soviet Russia a chance to put through a temporary peace or truce with Europe to stave off"economic catastrophe?" |
19150 | And what is it that Noske and his''Socialist''colleagues are defending? |
19150 | And what shall we say of such evidence? |
19150 | Are bakery workers planning to go on strike? |
19150 | Are n''t we taking a long excursion into the domain of the future and into the domain of speculation? |
19150 | Are we to take it at its own word? |
19150 | Are you going to present something to them that you know is not contained in the Socialist program? |
19150 | Are you prepared to meet the militia when the powers of the State and courts are against you? |
19150 | Are you training your members in scientific Socialism?'' |

19150 | Blasphemy? |
19150 | But does American labor think such an experiment_ here_ would be worth what it costs? |
19150 | But how? |
19150 | But if this public profession of lawfulness meant nothing to 70,000 of them, why think it means more to the rest? |
19150 | But what of the Russian workers? |
19150 | But why not strike against this slavery? |

19150 | Can anything be sacred which is based on a lie or on impurity, or on ignorance? |
19150 | Can they give any convincing argument? |
19150 | Can you afford, as representatives of this great revolutionary party, to do that which in a few years you will be ashamed of? |
19150 | Could idiocy be more abject? |
19150 | Counterfeiting? |
19150 | Did Christ ascend into heaven? |
19150 | Did Christ rise from the dead as Christianity teaches? |
19150 | Did he allude to some pink tea party? |
19150 | Do not the Marxians know that poverty, rather than wealth, fosters religion and piety, the greatest of all factors in keeping persons pure? |
19150 | Do not the"workmen"produce the food? |
19150 | Do the Reds deny that millions and millions of the very poorest are chaste? |
19150 | Do the Socialists claim that the average poor woman is less moral than the average rich one? |
19150 | Do we exaggerate the humbuggery of leadership uncloaked in this Emergency Convention of the Socialist Party of America? |
19150 | Do you hope to deceive some one as to the actual, real program of scientific Socialism? |
19150 | Do you think that is nice? |
19150 | Does he work? |
19150 | Does the wireless operator know who may intercept his call? |
19150 | Even if at last they are able to produce and distribute enough to clothe and feed themselves, can human beings be happy in such a state? |
19150 | Has it changed since the break with the Communists? |
19150 | Has man an immortal soul as Christianity teaches? |
19150 | Has the Socialist Party of America contributed its Executive Committeeman to this revolutionary machine? |
19150 | Has your manhood rotted into cowardice? |
19150 | Have the Socialist peoples the world over become truly"divine"by their attacks on God and all religions? |
19150 | Have they become"omnipotent"wherever they are in power-- so omnipotent that law, order and decency are no longer needed? |
19150 | He continued:"What is the charge here? |
19150 | Hillquit''s letter in the"Call"raised the question,"What shall be the attitude of the Socialist Party toward the newly formed Communist organization?" |
19150 | Hillquit, do you wish to be understood as saying that you approve of the words spoken by Mr. Debs for which he was convicted?'' |
19150 | Honor that which gives a free license to kill, if the victim happens to be a worker? |
19150 | Honor that which stands for oppression, for the loafer against the worker, for the master against the slave? |
19150 | Honor the Judases, the Benedict Arnolds of the working class? |
19150 | Honor the uniform? |
19150 | How can the power be cut off? |
19150 | How could insurance companies, in which the American people have invested so much, and which depend on interest, exist under Socialism? |
19150 | How did man originate? |
19150 | How do we know whether the co- operative commonwealth will infer and arrange it in that way? |
19150 | How long, O poor and exhausted workingmen of the world, will the shameful comedy continue? |
19150 | If Moscow''s"programs and methods"are only the minor reason for supporting Moscow, what is the major reason for this"support?" |
19150 | If a man can control a few votes, they reason, why should n''t he have a job? |
19150 | If a man wanted ten pairs of sandals or shoes he could have them, but why would he want them? |
19150 | If a wage slave is paid only enough to live on, anyhow, what difference to him does it make whether his boss is a Britisher or a Chinaman?" |
19150 | If not, would state officials or politicians decide the cases? |
19150 | If so, how many thousands of such courts would be required? |
19150 | If so, where is their proof? |
19150 | If the fuel reaches its destination what is simpler than to set the pockets on fire and have the coal burn in the yards instead of the furnaces? |
19150 | If this is not treason-- wickedness using"political party"methods both as a mask and a blackjack to destroy the State-- what is it? |
19150 | If you are a joiner or woodworker, what is simpler than to ruin furniture without your boss noticing it, and thereby drive his customers away? |
19150 | If you do n''t use the bricks, who will?'' |
19150 | If, indeed, workers want only reforms, why take the longest way around?" |

19150 | Now the things of which we''re talking we are mighty sure about.-- So what''s the use to strike the way you ca n''t win out? |
19150 | Now, you can not blame me if I do not care for more for some time to come...."''Could you give any information? |
19150 | Of what use are higher wages won by strikes, if the cost of living ascends still more rapidly? |

19150 | Should we take the name of God in vain? |
19150 | Socialism having ruined the insurance companies, would the millions of policyholders just sit down and have a good, hearty laugh over their losses? |
19150 | The American flag? |
19150 | The Stars and Stripes? |
19150 | The flag which floats over every hellhole of mine and mill and prison? |
19150 | The question may now be asked, What means is the Russian Bolshevist government using to incite revolution in America? |
19150 | The"New York Times,"April 28, 1919, commented in part on the debate as follows:"''Who wants war?'' |
19150 | Then why do they not take it and cut the throats of these drones? |

34534 | But if they were like father, they could do what he has done? |
34534 | Funny? |
34534 | Funny? |
34534 | How did_ he_ get it? |
34534 | If another man was as clever, and as industrious and thrifty as father,said Bob,"could he get on as well?" |
34534 | Then the poor are not like that? |
34534 | What do you mean, dear? |
34534 | What''s droll? |
34534 | _ Does_ Municipal management pay? 34534 2. Who produces wealth? 34534 2d.? 34534 6d., and_ Does Municipal Management Pay_? 34534 6d.? 34534 Am I to persuade you to join a Labour Party? 34534 And as for the amiability of your family, or your own personal merits, what have they to do with business? 34534 And do n''t you know that some successful men are rascals, and that some very wealthy men are fools? 34534 And do they not tell you that foreign traders are stealing the trade from the English traders? 34534 And do they not tell you that the foreign traders can undersell us in the world''s markets because their labour is cheaper? 34534 And do you still think that poverty is a mark of unworthiness, and wealth the sure proof of merit? 34534 And even at a cost of twopence a week do you not think the result would be worth the cost? 34534 And how much honour, culture, pleasure, rest, or love falls to the lot of the wives and children of the poor? 34534 And is it not odd to say that we will increase the wealth by reducing the number of the wealth makers? 34534 And is it not true that the Chinese and the Hindoos, who are the most temperate and the most thrifty people in the world, are always the worst paid? 34534 And is not your wife as much to you as the duchess to the duke? 34534 And the commercial travellers and the canvassers and the agents who get their living by telling lies,--as some of them do,--do you call those_ men_? 34534 And what has Labour got from the Home Rule Liberals it has elected? 34534 And what have they told you? 34534 And when did you last hear agentleman"say"sir"to a train- guard, to a railway porter, or to the"man"who has come to mend the drawing- room stove? |
34534 | And where is Home Rule to- day? |
34534 | And who would reap the benefit? |
34534 | And why does he succeed where she fails? |
34534 | And will it_ pay_ to produce these things if we are able to produce them at all? |
34534 | And would not the labourer speak sense if he said to the duke,"Why should I employ you to wear out breeches which I pay for?" |
34534 | Are they adding to the wealth of the nation? |
34534 | Are they not doing work that is unnecessary to the nation? |
34534 | Are they not now being paid wages? |
34534 | Are we quite sure that it pays us as well as that_ now_? |
34534 | Are we to pay a guinea each for dukes if we can get them three a penny? |
34534 | Because the question,"Where does wealth come from?" |
34534 | But are either of them superfluous? |
34534 | But are there no bare feet and ill- clothed backs? |
34534 | But do n''t you know that there are stupid and drunken mechanics, and steady and intelligent labourers? |
34534 | But do n''t you see that if all the others were as good as he, he would_ not_ be worth more? |
34534 | But do voters find this money? |
34534 | But does not non- Socialism displace labour? |
34534 | But does their fineness help you to pay your rent, or your wife to mend the clothes? |
34534 | But how could such a piece of wealth be distributed? |
34534 | But is it true that we can not grow wheat as cheaply as we can buy it? |
34534 | But of what avail is our vaunted silver shield of the sea if we depend upon other nations for our food? |
34534 | But the duke confers a benefit on the men he employs as huntsmen and servants, and without the duke they would starve? |
34534 | But what about the colliers and the carriers''labourers, such as railway men, dischargers, and carters? |
34534 | But what about the meat? |
34534 | But what are we to call the delicate and refined ladies who wear satin and pearls, while the people who earn them lack bread? |
34534 | But what can they do? |
34534 | But what is a fair price? |
34534 | But what is the result of the abstinence of these poor sisters of ours? |
34534 | But who_ pays_ the persons employed? |
34534 | But why is he better off? |
34534 | But will any one of the boys I should select become Prime Minister of England? |
34534 | But will the Trusts do that? |
34534 | But you may say,"What then would become of the huntsmen, jockeys, servants, and others who now live on hunting and on racing?" |
34534 | But, will it_ pay_? |
34534 | But_ do_ they? |
34534 | But_ why_? |
34534 | By what means do the landlords and the capitalists get the meat and leave the workers the bones? |
34534 | CAN BRITAIN FEED HERSELF? |
34534 | CHAPTER II WHAT IS WEALTH? |
34534 | CHAPTER XII CAN BRITAIN FEED HERSELF? |
34534 | CHAPTER XVI IS SOCIALISM POSSIBLE, AND WILL IT PAY? |
34534 | Can any man say, in the face of these figures, that we are incapable of growing our own wheat? |
34534 | Can any reasonable, practical, hard- headed man hesitate for one moment over his choice? |
34534 | Can he produce more cheaply? |
34534 | Can we grow 29,000,000 quarters in our own country? |
34534 | Can we grow our own wheat? |
34534 | Can we produce all, or nearly all, our butter, milk, eggs, cheese, and fruit? |
34534 | Can we produce our own bread, meat, and vegetables? |
34534 | Could not that sixpence have been saved from the rents, or interest, or profits, or royalties paid at the cost of the production of other goods? |
34534 | Could we not set the men to work? |
34534 | DOES MUNICIPAL MANAGEMENT PAY? |
34534 | Did anybody help them? |
34534 | Did each get what he deserved? |
34534 | Did each get what he deserved? |
34534 | Did the colliers get any of the spoil in wages? |
34534 | Did the wealth of Gould and the poverty of Christ indicate the intellectual and moral merits of those two sons of men? |
34534 | Do I blame the landlord? |
34534 | Do evils exist in this country to- day? |
34534 | Do n''t you know that the noble and brave man stands a poor chance of escape, and that the selfish, brutal man stands a good chance of escape? |
34534 | Do not the men of the"better class"address each other as"sir"? |
34534 | Do not the silk hats and the black coats and the white collars treat the caps and the overalls and the smocks as inferiors? |
34534 | Do not the workers_ make_ the wealth? |
34534 | Do not the"better classes,"as they call themselves, allude to the workers as"the lower orders,"and"the great unwashed"? |
34534 | Do the spinners get all the money the yarn is sold for? |
34534 | Do the workers in the town get it? |
34534 | Do the workers receive their full due? |
34534 | Do these inventors get the increased rent? |
34534 | Do they not tell you that England depends upon her foreign trade for her food? |
34534 | Do they produce any wealth? |
34534 | Do we not pay for our imported food in exported goods? |
34534 | Do we not remember how, when the colliers were struggling for a"living wage,"the Press scolded them for their"selfishness"? |
34534 | Do you doubt this? |
34534 | Do you doubt this? |
34534 | Do you elect your employers as officials of your Trade Unions? |
34534 | Do you see the idea? |
34534 | Do you send employers as delegates to your Trade Union Congress? |
34534 | Do you think the employer is likely to be more useful or more disinterested in Parliament or the County Council than in the Trade Union? |
34534 | Does Jones spin any of the yarn? |
34534 | Does it not seem likely that then the share of the poor would be bigger? |
34534 | Does not the employer commonly speak of the workers as"hands"? |
34534 | Does that silence the commercial school? |
34534 | Does the fine gentleman, who raises his hat and airs his nicest manners for a"lady,"extend his chivalry and politeness to a"woman"? |
34534 | First, then, what_ is_ wealth? |
34534 | For do n''t you see that this race which the lucky or successful men tell us we can_ all_ win is not a fair race? |
34534 | For if the nation can build warships, why can they not build cargo ships? |
34534 | For, having sold your love for permission to work, how long will you be before you sell your honour? |
34534 | Had he been born the son of a crossing- sweeper do you think he would have been Prime Minister? |
34534 | Has the landlord increased the value? |
34534 | Have you not witnessed, perhaps suffered, many of these evils? |
34534 | He says the French can produce their food more cheaply than they can buy it; and if the French can do this, why can not we? |
34534 | How are the people to get the land? |
34534 | How are the workers to form a Labour Party? |
34534 | How can capital produce wealth? |
34534 | How can he pay rent? |
34534 | How can it be maintained, then, that_ Socialism_ is impossible? |
34534 | How is it some who are able and willing to work can get no work to do? |
34534 | How is it that middle class and even wealthy people often accept_ Socialism_ more readily than do the workers? |
34534 | How is it that others who do not work at all have more money than they need? |
34534 | How is it that some who work very hard are so poorly paid? |
34534 | How is it that the Press never chides these men for their folly in trying to keep up profits, royalties, and interest in a"falling market"? |
34534 | How is the money divided? |
34534 | How long will you allow these insolent market- men to insult you? |
34534 | How long? |
34534 | How long? |
34534 | How many working men are there on the County Councils, the Boards of Guardians, the School Boards, and the Town Councils? |
34534 | How many years is it since the Newcastle programme was issued? |
34534 | How much cake does a working mechanic get? |
34534 | How much more? |
34534 | How much would that mean to 2,000,000 of Unionists? |
34534 | How, then, can_ Socialism_ be called impossible? |
34534 | How, then, do the Americans contrive so often to beat us? |
34534 | How, then, will a reduction of the population prevent poverty? |
34534 | How? |
34534 | I am bread; thou art the eater: how can harmony exist between us? |
34534 | IS SOCIALISM POSSIBLE, AND WILL IT PAY? |
34534 | If Bradford can manage more than one hotel, why can not London, Glasgow, Leeds, and Portsmouth do the same? |
34534 | If Bradford can manage one hotel, why not more than one? |
34534 | If a Corporation can manage trams, gas, and water, why can it not manage bread, milk, meat, and beer supplies? |
34534 | If a Liberal or a Tory can be trusted as a parliamentary representative, why can not he be trusted as an employer? |
34534 | If it can manage its telegraphs, why not its railways, its trams, its cabs, its factories? |
34534 | If it displaces labour, as the machine does, should that prevent us from adopting Socialism? |
34534 | If not, why not? |
34534 | If not, why not? |
34534 | If the Government can manage a fleet of war vessels, why not fleets of liners and traders? |
34534 | If the Government can manage post and telegraph services, why not telephones and coalmines? |
34534 | If the cigar maker needs work, why should I not employ him myself, and smoke the cigars myself, since I am to pay for them?" |
34534 | If the nation can carry its own letters, why not its own coals? |
34534 | If they can build forts, why not houses? |
34534 | If they can make policemen''s boots and soldiers''coats, why not make ladies''hats and mechanics''trousers? |
34534 | If they can make rifles, why not sewing machines or ploughs? |
34534 | If they can pickle beef for the navy, why should they not make jam for the household? |
34534 | If they can run a railway across the African desert, why should they not run one from London to York? |
34534 | If you oppose a man as an employer, why do you vote for him as a Member of Parliament? |
34534 | If, then, Lord de Canter owns all the land, and Tommy Tumbler owns none, how is Tommy Tumbler to get his living? |
34534 | Impossible? |
34534 | Is America, therefore, so much better off as to justify us in accepting the seven- branched programme as salvation? |
34534 | Is it any wonder, then, that laws are made and administered in the interests of the capitalist? |
34534 | Is it because there are too many of them? |
34534 | Is it impossible for this nation to produce food for 40,000,000 of people? |
34534 | Is it likely, then, that we can keep all our foreign trade, or that what we keep will be as profitable as it is at present? |
34534 | Is it needful to tell you more, Mr. Smith, you who are yourself a worker? |
34534 | Is it not marvellous? |
34534 | Is it not so? |
34534 | Is it the man who owns the patent, or the man who invented the machine? |
34534 | Is it true to say that not the ploughman but the plough makes the furrow? |
34534 | Is it true to say that the loom makes the cloth? |
34534 | Is it true, then, to say that it is not the navvy but the spade that makes the trench? |
34534 | Is not self- interest the ruling passion in the human heart? |
34534 | Is not that all quite clear and plain? |
34534 | Is that a very high price to pay for security against defeat by starvation in time of war? |
34534 | Is that practical? |
34534 | Is there any law of equity which says it is unjust to take by force from a robber what the robber took by force from another robber? |
34534 | Is there any logic in you workers? |
34534 | Is there any perception in you? |
34534 | Is there any_ sense_ in you? |
34534 | Nay, is it not true that many of you have sold it already? |
34534 | Now comes our second question: Where does wealth come from? |
34534 | Now, I ask you, as sensible men, is there"nothing to prevent"that boy from getting through that door? |
34534 | Now, how did he make his way?" |
34534 | Now, how does the law act towards these men? |
34534 | Now, how is it that the inventor does_ not_ get it, and how is it that the landlord and the capitalist_ do_ get it? |
34534 | Now, is n''t that a precious piece of nonsense? |
34534 | Now, my practical friends, how many working- class members sit for Manchester to- day? |
34534 | Now, of that crowd of people, who are most likely to escape? |
34534 | Now, suppose our white man works for wages-- works for the black man-- what is going to regulate the wages? |
34534 | Now, what is it we have to find out? |
34534 | Now, where do the stores come from? |
34534 | Now, why are the rest of the workers too poor to buy boots and clothing? |
34534 | Now, will he be likely to be strong? |
34534 | Or why should the duke mutter about class hatred if I suggest that we can get a colliery director at a lower salary than his Grace? |
34534 | Our third question asks,"What becomes of the wealth?" |
34534 | Poverty is due to over- production-- of_ what_? |
34534 | Pretty reasoning, is n''t it? |
34534 | Say, rather, where are they not? |
34534 | Should I accuse him of class hatred? |
34534 | Should I be offended with the duke for refusing to pay me more than I am worth? |
34534 | Some of us would get whipped if all of us got our deserts; but who would deserve applause and wealth and a crown? |
34534 | Suppose men_ can_ earn more in the big towns than they_ could_ earn in the fields, is the difference_ all_ gain? |
34534 | That is clear, is it not? |
34534 | The question is, Are the British workers as well off as they ought to be and might be? |
34534 | The question is, Are the workers as well off now as they ought to be and might be? |
34534 | The question is, Do evils exist at all to- day, and if so, is no remedy available? |
34534 | The question is, Might you be better off than you are now? |
34534 | The tramp asks him how came the land to be his? |
34534 | Then how should_ any_ party be so true to Labour and so diligent in Labour''s service as a Labour Party would be? |
34534 | Then if the duke did not take the labourer''s money the labourer could buy clothes? |
34534 | Then if the duke did not take the labourer''s money the tailor_ would_ have work? |
34534 | Then in this case the duke is no use? |
34534 | Then it is not the duke''s money, but the labourer''s money, which keeps the tailor from starving? |
34534 | Then the strong have a better chance than the weak, have they not? |
34534 | Then why should I be blamed for suggesting that it is folly to pay a duke more than he is worth? |
34534 | Then why should I not persuade you to join a Trade Union? |
34534 | They could carry the day at every poll? |
34534 | They why should they demand that you shall stay with them out of gratitude now they have halted? |
34534 | This brings us to the second part of our question:"Who produces wealth?" |
34534 | Those nearest to the door have a better chance than those farthest, have they not? |
34534 | To the man who creates it? |
34534 | To whom, then, should the extra wealth belong? |
34534 | WHAT IS WEALTH? |
34534 | WHERE DOES IT COME FROM? |
34534 | WHERE DOES IT COME FROM? |
34534 | WHO CREATES IT? |
34534 | WHO CREATES IT? |
34534 | Was Jacob the better man? |
34534 | We are told that poverty is due to under- consumption-- under- consumption of_ what_? |
34534 | Well, do you still think that single life, a crust of bread, and rags, will alone enable you to hold your own and to keep your foreign trade? |
34534 | Well, since we left the land in the hope that the factories would feed us better, why not go back to the land if the factories fail to feed us at all? |

34534 | Why? |
34534 | Why? |
34534 | Why? |
34534 | Why? |
34534 | Why? |
34534 | Why? |
34534 | Will it be any nearer ten years hence than it is now if you wait for the practical politicians of the old parties to give it to you? |
34534 | Will it be better for the two slaves if the master takes half the bread left to them, and eats that as well as the bread he has already taken? |
34534 | Will it mend matters here if the rich man"consumes more"? |
34534 | Will not the French and Russian Governments try to corner the American wheat? |

34534 | Will you be one to help us--_now_? |
34534 | Will you not hear him? |
34534 | Would he not say,"Why should I employ you to smoke cigars which I pay for? |
34534 | Would it not be more practical and hard- headed to hear first what the bringer of such good news had to tell? |
34534 | Would it pay? |
34534 | Would not the farmer speak sense? |
34534 | Would those yacht builders have starved without the rich man? |

34534 | Would you call him a gentleman? |
34534 | Would you call him a sensible man? |
34534 | Yet, how often have you been told that Socialists want to have the wealth equally divided amongst all? |

34534 | _ Why?_ The agricultural labourer is badly in want of clothes; can not_ he_ find the tailor work? |
34534 | _ Why_ has he no money? |
34534 | _ Will_ it pay? |
34534 | a quarter? |
34534 | and if so, is there a remedy? |
34534 | and if there is a remedy, what is it? |
34534 | done for Home Rule, and what has he done for Labour? |
34534 | or does it give you more wages, or her more rest? |
34534 | or does it in any way help to educate, and feed, and make happy your children? |
34534 | or to the man who does not create it? |
34534 | or"How is wealth produced?" |
34534 | really means,"How is wealth produced?" |
28361 | An anti- Socialist will say,''How will you sail a ship in a Socialist condition?'' 28361 Are we then to understand that the whole of history, so far, has been written from the point of view of the dominant class of every age? |
28361 | CASEY:_ Who are the Bloodsuckers?_ Independent Labour Party. |
28361 | Did you ever consider what it involved, this ruin of British agriculture? 28361 Do you ever consider the lives of the people who make these marvellously cheap things? |
28361 | Does he himself want to work: to do something useful? 28361 Does not Socialist society presuppose extraordinary human beings, real angels, as regards unselfishness and gentleness, joy of work and intelligence? |
28361 | Is it possible that this degrading monarchical superstition can survive in England much longer? 28361 What is the use of the suffrage? |
28361 | Why pay in usury at all? 28361 [ 1048] The assertion,"We know"( who are we?) |
28361 | [ 1052] Will there be no Ananiases in the Socialist Commonwealth? 28361 [ 1054] Have they? |
28361 | [ 1080] Another influential Socialist writer exclaims:What is freedom but the unfettered use of all the powers which God for use has given? |
28361 | [ 1108] What was the Paris Commune, and what did it do? 28361 [ 1203]"Who is more ready to tilt against society than the average Socialist? |
28361 | [ 1227] How, then, is the amount of the unequal wages to be calculated? 28361 [ 1231] The question now arises how is the"fair equivalent for services rendered"to be determined? |
28361 | [ 1232] Should the labourer be given an equivalent to the product of his labour_ minus_ various necessary expenditures? 28361 [ 1243] And what consequences would refusal to do the allotted work at the allotted pay entail? |

28361 | [ 208]Why are men-- men that is who are able and willing, nay, eager and anxious, to work-- unemployed? |
28361 | [ 251] The question now arises:On what ground do capitalists defend the principle of competition? |
28361 | [ 263] Do the fundamental doctrines of British Socialism bear out the claims of its champions? 28361 [ 273]"What is property? |
28361 | [ 298]Do any say we attack private property? |
28361 | [ 337]What has hitherto prevented the workers from combining for the overthrow of the capitalist system? |
28361 | [ 345] The Independent Labour Party has issued a leaflet entitledAre you a Socialist?" |
28361 | [ 367] But why should a working man have to wait till he is fifty- five before receiving a pension? 28361 [ 404] Another writer urged:"Is it not time that we combined and strove for something higher, wider, and more far- reaching? |
28361 | [ 472]Supposing those who have the money were to threaten to leave the country and to take their money with them, would not that upset your plans? |
28361 | [ 476]Is it possible for a self- governing people to rule a subject race, and yet keep its own love for liberty? |
28361 | [ 480]What is the attitude of Socialism towards backward races, savage and barbaric peoples who are to- day outside the civilised world? |
28361 | [ 510] These words contain assurances, not a plan, and therefore we must inquire, What is the foreign policy of Socialism? 28361 [ 526] And what are the"signs and portents"upon which the belief is based that war will be abolished? |
28361 | [ 530] Under the headingWill it come to barricades?" |

28361 | [ 636]The question is frequently put:''Why are Socialists so much opposed to Liberalism?'' |
28361 | [ 717]Would Socialists take away the land from the landlords and let it out in little plots? |
28361 | [ 753]How will exchange then be carried on? |

28361 | A very violent Socialist organ recently wrote:"Our trade union leaders are not so corrupt as those of America? |
28361 | Again I ask: Who are_ we_? |
28361 | An employer who engages a workman does not ask,"How much do you eat?" |
28361 | And do n''t you think that is rather a stiff price to pay to get a farthing off the loaf? |
28361 | And if competition became keener, what would the champions of Free Trade do to meet it? |
28361 | And if the turnpike gate was an odious obstruction to the traveller, how much more obnoxious to him, or her, is the railway ticket- box? |
28361 | And may not the destruction of the capitalists reduce Great Britain to the level of Turkey and Servia? |

28361 | Are the Socialists or the Anti- Socialists right in their conception of Socialism? |
28361 | Are the private middleman''s profits not distributed to a host of corporation officials in the shape of substantial salaries? |

28361 | Are these claims justified or not? |
28361 | Are these things that are so good for the nation good for me? |

28361 | Are we never to have a Government that can hear the bitter cry of the outcast, and, hearing, act? |
28361 | Bebel puts the question,"What becomes of the difference between the industrious and the idle, the intelligent and the stupid?" |
28361 | But has not this law been discarded even by some Socialists? |
28361 | But has the middleman really disappeared when a city corporation takes his place? |
28361 | But how can the electors express their desires on this vital matter under our present electoral system? |
28361 | But if the promised doubling of wages should not take place, what will happen? |
28361 | But of what avail is our vaunted silver shield of the sea if we depend upon other nations for our food? |

28361 | COMPENSATION has no place in Socialist ethics, 100 f. or no compensation in expropriating private property? |
28361 | Can any argument be more foolish than the foregoing one? |
28361 | Can it drop its fundamental idea of individualism and take up the idea of co- operation? |
28361 | Can the party adopt a new ideal? |
28361 | Can you say how much the landlord takes from the wages of father, generally for rent? |
28361 | Chapter v.[ 897] Blatchford,_ What is this Socialism?_ p. 2. |
28361 | Commenting on this statement Mr. Blatchford says:"Why, indeed, should we not be able to raise 29,000,000 quarters of wheat? |
28361 | Compete with us with the ratepayers''money? |
28361 | Could a simpler and more ingenious system for making money be devised? |
28361 | Could the value of the labour of an individual be calculated at all in the complicated processes of modern industry? |
28361 | Did Sir Henry Campbell- Bannerman wish to satisfy the Socialists by rather creating small leaseholders than small freehold farmers? |
28361 | Did not Mr. John Bright once say that adulteration is only another form of competition? |

28361 | Do n''t you see that if we lose our power to feed ourselves we destroy the advantages of our insular position? |
28361 | Do not the working class pay the rates and taxes? |
28361 | Do the rich and their children live at the expense of those who work? |
28361 | Do the rich trouble about the poor children of London who are ill- fed and clothed? |
28361 | Do the workers benefit by machinery? |
28361 | Do they not often lose all their belongings, and get into debt, while looking for that new employment which the Free Traders talk about so glibly? |
28361 | Do they send their sons and daughters, To the workshop or the mill? |
28361 | Do they work? |
28361 | Do we''own''nothing? |
28361 | Do you call this industrial warfare? |
28361 | Do you never think, oh, tell Of the hideous crime and shame That has made this earth a hell Of commercial fraud and shame? |
28361 | Do you not see that those your capitalists find it convenient and profitable to employ may live; and that those they do not choose to employ must die? |
28361 | Do you work when you like and idle when you like? |
28361 | Does anyone mean to assert that that credit which is eagerly purchased by a banker would be refused by a bricklayer or stonemason? |
28361 | Does it effect this? |
28361 | Does not that fit your case exactly? |

28361 | He makes this surrender of humanity and honour for what? |
28361 | He says:"What is vital in Socialism? |
28361 | How are all these wonderful and almost miraculous changes to be financed? |

28361 | How do Socialists, then, propose to meet the difficulty? |

28361 | INTRODUCTION-- WHAT IS SOCIALISM? |
28361 | If You wish me to act otherwise, why did You not make me different? |
28361 | If it has a job to do, why does it stand day after day, week after week, year after year, cackling, cackling, cackling about it? |
28361 | If not, how can they consistently support the system which inevitably produces that state of things upon earth? |
28361 | If the London County Council decided to open 1,000 bread- shops, how would they raise the capital required? |
28361 | In what sense is it free? |
28361 | Is a larger number of voters likely to pick out abler administrators than a small one? |
28361 | Is all the necessary work of the world, then, already finished, so that there is nothing more remaining for anyone to do? |
28361 | Is it a question of profit or inequitable exchange? |
28361 | Is it a question of rent? |
28361 | Is it a question of usury or interest? |
28361 | Is it alive in us as a nation? |
28361 | Is it likely, then, that we can keep all our foreign trade, or that what we keep will be as profitable as it is at present? |
28361 | Is it my fault that You fore- ordained me to be and to do thus?'' |
28361 | Is it not more logical, more coherent, more likely to succeed than any''citizen army scheme''? |
28361 | Is it not the working class which creates all wealth? |
28361 | Is that a very high price to pay for security against defeat by starvation in time of war? |
28361 | Is the home worth preserving? |
28361 | Is there any difference in the teachings at Socialist Sunday schools and other Sunday schools? |
28361 | Is there any question as to their being acceptable? |
28361 | Know ye not, boobies, that all is your own? |
28361 | LEATHAM, JAMES:_ Was Jesus a Socialist?_ Twentieth Century Press. |
28361 | Let us, for instance, inquire: HOW WILL LABOUR BE REMUNERATED? |
28361 | Local, will it be repudiated? |
28361 | May not proportionately as large a Socialist party arise in Great Britain, especially as no political party can outbid the Socialists? |
28361 | May, then, owners of property keep at least that part of their property which is not invested in land? |
28361 | Mr. Bax very sensibly argues:"What does each man produce of himself as an individual? |
28361 | Nothing for them to do? |
28361 | Now the question arises: How do Socialists propose to fill the void? |
28361 | Now when we consider the question of municipal trading in gas, tramways, and electricity, is the principle involved any different? |
28361 | Now, I ask, can we conceive a more abjectly contemptible character than that which acts thus? |
28361 | OVER- PRODUCTION, complaints as to, 66 f. are not justified, 70 f. can it be prevented by Socialists? |
28361 | Of what service is the State? |
28361 | Of what use can it ever be to the mass of the common people? |
28361 | On what terms does the capitalist allow the labourers to work? |
28361 | Or, if that is too much, why not offer her special rates? |
28361 | Our own money? |
28361 | PROUDHON:_ What is Property?_ William Reeves. |

28361 | Prosperity? |
28361 | Shall you complain who are the world Of what the world may do? |
28361 | Shall you complain who feed the world-- Who clothe the world, who house the world? |
28361 | Show me how much cotton any given factory operative has produced in the course of a year? |
28361 | Suppose men can earn more in the big towns than they could earn in the fields, is the difference all gain? |
28361 | Suppose_ 100,000l._ were required? |
28361 | THE LATEST DECALOGUE Thou shalt have one God only, who Would be at the expense of two? |
28361 | That is sheer robbery, is it not? |
28361 | The manner in which the simple question,"How do you propose to fit actual human nature into your scheme?" |
28361 | The only question remaining is, How? |
28361 | The question is not''Is the nation wealthy?'' |
28361 | The question now arises: How do the Socialists propose to deal with the land and the owners of land? |
28361 | The question now arises: How is this transference of all private property to the State to be effected? |
28361 | The question now arises:"What does the manufacturer do with his earnings?" |
28361 | The question now suggests itself:"How is it that the British Socialists base their demands on pseudo- scientific doctrines of obvious absurdity?" |
28361 | The question, therefore,''How can we become richer?'' |
28361 | The real question is: Can you produce men fit for the new social State? |
28361 | Then ask yourselves: Of what use is Parliament? |
28361 | Then they are paupers? |
28361 | Then why does n''t it do it? |
28361 | There are no slaves in this country? |
28361 | This world will be a garden, An Eden full of bliss; Oh, brother-- sister-- won''t you strive For such a state as this? |
28361 | To prevent dawdling, could it be ascertained how long it should take to repair a machine, paint a picture, amputate a leg, plough an acre? |

28361 | what is their attitude towards International Communism and Anarchism? |
35447 | A lark? |
35447 | A murder? |
35447 | A serenade? |
35447 | Absurd? |
35447 | Ah, who''s afraid? 35447 Ai n''t I a- doin''it now?" |
35447 | An enemy? |
35447 | An''ye''re goin''ter help me bear mine? |
35447 | And I distinctly said no jumping or screaming, did n''t I? |
35447 | And how did you get all these costly and beautiful things, my dear? |
35447 | And if I do not see you often while your palace is building, you may know at least I have not forgotten-- and you will understand? |
35447 | And if she never calls? |
35447 | And suppose they all choose one job? |
35447 | And the man who refuses to work? |
35447 | And this is the ideal you came here to build? |
35447 | And what are the foundations on which you propose to build this heaven on earth? |
35447 | And what brought you to this decision? |
35447 | And what did he say? |
35447 | And what happened? |
35447 | And who will decide how much each one needs-- the man who feels the need or the state? |
35447 | And why not? 35447 And why not? |
35447 | And would you risk this enormous sum on one experiment? 35447 And yet you place yourself absolutely in my power?" |
35447 | And you accepted these rich and costly things in perfect innocence of the evil meaning others might put on them? |
35447 | And you could get no hint of the identity of the men who gave the money? |
35447 | And you did n''t like it? |
35447 | And you do n''t object? |
35447 | And you got the incentive in your defeat? |
35447 | And you think I''ll submit to this? |
35447 | And you think that I will accept such shame? |
35447 | And you think your father will stand for it? |
35447 | And you will abolish private property? |
35447 | And you''re my chum that never flunked when she gave her word? |
35447 | And you''ve fully weighed the cost? |
35447 | Are women to receive the same allowance as men, and married women the same as spinsters? 35447 Are ye willin''to learn them things?" |
35447 | Are you mad? 35447 Are you mixed up in any way personally with the young woman who spoke here that day?" |
35447 | Are you ready to descend with me to the depths, my princess in disguise? |
35447 | Are you sure it would be perfectly safe, Norman? |
35447 | As our society grows-- and thousands are now clamouring for admission-- how is wealth to be distributed? 35447 Awkward?" |
35447 | Because I''m laughing? |
35447 | Bigger news? |
35447 | But do n''t we begin to weaken the moment we do a thing like that? 35447 But how did it happen twice the same day, sonny?" |
35447 | But how? |
35447 | But if he does something rash? |
35447 | But if they propose to give you a better flag, Governor? |
35447 | But is it a success? 35447 But my dear Blanche,"pleaded Barbara,"ca n''t you see that you are bringing scandal and disgrace into the colony?" |
35447 | But over you? |
35447 | But what did you tell him? |
35447 | But what on earth do you want a lightning- rod for, John? |
35447 | But where''s the calf I''m supposed to be watching? |
35447 | But you believe in free speech? |
35447 | But you have not accepted his love? |
35447 | But your incentive-- I do n''t understand-- in such an hour? |
35447 | Can I git de captain er de football team two seats? 35447 Can a farmer be allowed vacations? |
35447 | Can he earn a wife, or make one for himself? |
35447 | Can you blame him after the way you acted? |
35447 | Congratulate me? |
35447 | Dare? |
35447 | Deliberately set out to make him love me? |
35447 | Did you ever know me to flunk when I gave my word? |
35447 | Do n''t you think, comrades,Norman began, in persuasive tones,"that your demands are rather high?" |
35447 | Do what, Guardie? 35447 Do ye love me?" |
35447 | Do you call this the Brotherhood of Man? |
35447 | Do you know,smilingly inquired the superintendent,"how much it will cost to plant and harvest such a crop?" |
35447 | Do you really doubt it? |
35447 | Even at the risk of your life? |
35447 | Even in spite of the Socialists? |
35447 | Even so,the young leader responded,"is it fair that an assistant cook should receive equal wages with the chef?" |
35447 | Ever milk a cow? |
35447 | Ever swing a hod? |
35447 | For heaven''s sake, what do I do? |
35447 | Good heavens,cried the girl, her big blue eyes opening wide with injured innocence,"how could I help it? |
35447 | Had n''t you better part them now? |
35447 | Has he returned from that woman yet? |
35447 | Has n''t your imagination been caught by beautiful phrases, my boy? |
35447 | Have you gone mad? |
35447 | Have you gone mad? |
35447 | He told you he had whipped all the others who had taken that walk with him? |
35447 | He will deliver the deeds to- morrow? |
35447 | Honestly, I''m afraid I disgraced myself, did n''t I? |
35447 | Honestly, now, Governor, just between us, do n''t you think you were a little bit absurd to- day? |
35447 | Honestly? |
35447 | How are the thousand and one matters pertaining to private life and habits to be settled without continually augmenting the power of government? 35447 How are we to prevent speculation, wages being unequal? |
35447 | How can I know him? |
35447 | How can we prevent a man from losing his wages playing poker with his neighbour if he does so joyfully? 35447 How can we punish the jobbery and waste and corruption which may enter from experiments which are not made in good faith? |
35447 | How can we,the questioner went on,"retain our democratic liberties as law makers as we grow in numbers? |
35447 | How could I dream that he would commit such an act of insane treason before my very eyes? |
35447 | How do you like the picture? |
35447 | How long have you loved me? |
35447 | How long, O Lord, how long, will Thy servant wait for deliverance? |
35447 | How many hours shall constitute a day on the farm? 35447 How?" |
35447 | How? |
35447 | I can not see Norman, to- day? |
35447 | I did n''t feel it, sir-- why? |
35447 | I hope you did n''t threaten him, Tom? |
35447 | I suppose he has no people living who are interested in him? |
35447 | I tried to eat and something choked me-- what was it? 35447 I''d like to know,"the cook shouted,"how I''m to do my work if every fool in creation can butt into my business?" |
35447 | I''ve got to have some fun, have n''t I? 35447 If a man chooses to be a writer, how many years shall he be allowed to work at his occupation if in the opinion of the judges he shows no talent? |
35447 | If churches are built, who shall determine their cost and their style of architecture if the State erects them? 35447 If labour is the creator of all wealth can one man ever earn a million dollars?" |
35447 | If religion is allowed, who shall determine how many preachers each denomination can have? 35447 If the State will not make exchanges, what is one to do who has taken a piece of property and finds later he has no use for it? |
35447 | If we are ever to attain a condition of equality must we not forbid gifts and exchanges? 35447 In heaven''s name, Norman, what''s the matter?" |
35447 | In your new State of Ventura you will give to each man according to his needs? |
35447 | Is it a world worth living in? |
35447 | Is it becoming? |
35447 | Is it possible,Norman inquired,"that there is a human being among us who eats sauerkraut for breakfast?" |
35447 | Is n''t it thrilling? |
35447 | Is not such pressure desirable? |
35447 | Is there goin''ter be any trouble? |
35447 | It makes your heart leap, does n''t it? |
35447 | Just a little childish about a piece of red, white, and blue cloth? |
35447 | Kin ye cook? |
35447 | Kin ye scrub? |
35447 | Kin ye wash? |
35447 | Look here, Elena, I hope you do n''t believe that I have been disloyal to you in my association with Barbara Bozenta? |
35447 | Look here, what are ye drivin''at? |
35447 | Married? |
35447 | Merely for a difference of opinion, Governor? |
35447 | Must a doctor always come when he''s called-- even for imaginary, hysterical, and foolish causes? 35447 Name er God, man, what de matter wid you? |
35447 | Nonsense-- who''s afraid? |
35447 | Not coming? |
35447 | Not old Tom and Joe? |
35447 | Now that you are just making it a marvellous success? |
35447 | Now, you_ are_ afraid of me? |
35447 | Of course not-- what woman ever does? |
35447 | Of me? |
35447 | Oh-- after the disarming? |
35447 | On the other hand, if the State alone can make exchanges, how can we prevent a shrewd man from getting rich by dealing with the State itself? 35447 Or will the State force him to spend all, thus encouraging reckless habits? |
35447 | Over Norman''s meeting? |
35447 | Promise to put all anger out of your heart and talk to Norman as a father, not as an enemy-- won''t you? |
35447 | Put the question solemnly to ourselves-- we do n''t want the job at any price, do we? |
35447 | Said that he had been appointed by the council to whip you? |
35447 | Say, Elena, for heaven''s sake, who are you in love with anyhow-- with me or the Governor? |
35447 | Say, ai n''t you worked your jaw overtime now? |
35447 | Shall Protestants be allowed a sum equal to the amount used in support of religious orders? 35447 Shall men and women be required to marry or be allowed to remain single? |
35447 | Shall one general manager decide what kind of crops to raise on each piece of land or each manager decide for himself? 35447 Shall we repeat it until you are used to it?" |
35447 | She ca n''t live, can she? |
35447 | So who''s afraid? |
35447 | Still dreaming of the New Joan of Arc, Norman? |
35447 | Suppose I can convince you that you have entered on a mistaken mission-- that your programme is foolish, impossible, and dangerous? |
35447 | Suppose a poor manager spoils the crop on an immense tract of land, how can any adequate penalty be enforced? 35447 Suppose after all, Guardie, he should succeed?" |
35447 | That''s my secret, sir,the old man answered,"but I must have one-- won''t you get it for me?" |
35447 | Then I ca n''t persuade you to give up this madness? |
35447 | Then I must speak softly, must I not? 35447 Then I''d like to know who did?" |
35447 | Then I''m wasting breath to plead with you? |
35447 | Then from to- day we are comrades in the cause of humanity? |
35447 | Then we''re both in the right mind now, to begin all over again, are we not? |
35447 | Then what''s a better way? |
35447 | Then what''s the use? 35447 Then you are going to import a new breed of men and women?" |
35447 | Then you''ll join us to- day? |
35447 | Then, what t''''ell ye kickin''about? |
35447 | This is your father, Norman----"Get off the wire or quit your kiddin''--what do you want? |
35447 | Unfair? 35447 Wall, ef you try any more capers in that dinin''-room, your health''s goin''ter break clean down-- yer hear me?" |
35447 | Was the old world of family life, of starvation and misery, worth living in? |
35447 | Was there an earthquake this morning, Norman? |
35447 | We shall be just two children to- day-- shall we not? |
35447 | Well, does n''t that jar you? 35447 Well, is n''t the joke on me? |
35447 | Well, sir,the father said, at length,"have you nothing to say to me after what has occurred to- day?" |
35447 | Well, what do ye think er that? |
35447 | Were you not partners and friends before you joined the Brotherhood? |
35447 | What are you tryin''ter do anyhow? |
35447 | What compensation can we give to those who hate theatres? 35447 What did ye ruin them horses''shoulders fer?" |
35447 | What did you mean by saying that you were afraid of coming trouble? |
35447 | What did you say to him? |
35447 | What do you mean by that? |
35447 | What do you mean, Catherine? |
35447 | What do you mean, sir? |
35447 | What do you mean? |
35447 | What do you say, Tom? |
35447 | What have you heard? 35447 What have you to say?" |
35447 | What is it, Guardie? 35447 What is it-- what is it? |
35447 | What is it? |
35447 | What is it? |
35447 | What is to be done with a strong minority who are bitterly opposed to the action of the majority when we assume our permanent democratic form? 35447 What kind of a surprise?" |
35447 | What news? |
35447 | What on earth is that they are singing, Norman? |
35447 | What on earth is the matter? |
35447 | What on earth''s the matter? |
35447 | What shall be done with a man who works outside regular hours and accumulates a vast private fortune? |
35447 | What shall be done with the Negro, the Chinaman, and the Indian when their numbers largely increase? 35447 What were the conditions?" |
35447 | What''s happened? |
35447 | What''s that you say? |
35447 | What''s the matter, child? |
35447 | What''s the matter? 35447 What''s the matter?" |
35447 | What? 35447 What?" |
35447 | What? |
35447 | What? |
35447 | What? |
35447 | When our theatre is opened, shall admission be free? 35447 Where are you going?" |
35447 | Where is it? |
35447 | Which means for me? |
35447 | Who can decide whether ideas proposed are useless or impossible? 35447 Who lowered that flag? |
35447 | Who lowered that flag? |
35447 | Who shall not inherit the kingdom of God? |
35447 | Who shall say when a doctor is not fit to practise? 35447 Who will join us now? |
35447 | Who''s afraid? |
35447 | Why afraid? |
35447 | Why do strong men go forth to war? |
35447 | Why do you trust me with the greatest question of your life with such perfect faith? |
35447 | Why not consider? |
35447 | Why of me? 35447 Why should we rejoice to- day in the death of our fellow man? |
35447 | Why should you continue to repeat that foolish assertion? 35447 Why should you fight one another? |
35447 | Why stand by? 35447 Why this insult?" |
35447 | Why? |
35447 | Will the State permit freedom of opinion in the columns of its papers and the books printed? 35447 Will the State publish all books by all authors, or will selections be made? |
35447 | Will you do it? |
35447 | Will you promise me one thing, Guardie? |
35447 | Without a frown or a hostile look? |
35447 | Wo n''t this soil grow cantaloups? |
35447 | Would such a fate be intolerable? |
35447 | Would you be sorry if the dream should be realized? |
35447 | Yer believe it now? |
35447 | Yes, but how kin ye git any law inside a man ef he''s always chuck full er licker? |
35447 | Yes, what is it? |
35447 | Yes, yes, I know; but man must work-- all men must work in your new state? |
35447 | Yet is n''t man greater than all these worlds? |
35447 | You are not tired? |
35447 | You are still daring me? |
35447 | You are sure he ca n''t raise the money? |
35447 | You are sure you do this because I asked you? |
35447 | You are worried? |
35447 | You believe me now? |
35447 | You believe this? |
35447 | You can not believe that I willingly betrayed you? |
35447 | You dare thus to defy my wishes? |
35447 | You deny the accusations they bring against your good name? |
35447 | You did not sleep well? |
35447 | You doubt it? |
35447 | You doubt my power? |
35447 | You grant these chumps-- these idiots-- wages equal to mine? 35447 You have n''t asked me if I love you?" |
35447 | You have not made love to her? |
35447 | You knew I would? |
35447 | You know that if he did succeed in raising the money, and establishing his brotherhood of man, the scheme would end in failure? |
35447 | You know that you will be forced to spend most of your time in my office? |
35447 | You like it? |
35447 | You mean Saka? |
35447 | You mean it? |
35447 | You mean the half million was subscribed? |
35447 | You mean this? |
35447 | You mean to stop all progress by stopping inventions? |
35447 | You promise? |
35447 | You say this to me after all that Catherine has been to you and your life? |
35447 | You talk this twaddle about romantic love? 35447 You think I can do anything to help you?" |
35447 | You think I do n''t mean it? |
35447 | You think such drastic measures to prevent communication with the outside world will be needed? |
35447 | You trust me so far? |
35447 | You understand? |
35447 | You were interested? |
35447 | You will help and cheer me in the work I''ve planned? |
35447 | You will not grant me the labour to complete the dredge? |
35447 | You will not try to avoid me? |
35447 | You wish me to decide the momentous question of our colony? 35447 You''ll report to me the moment you return?" |
35447 | You''re sure that it is not her personal influence over you that has made you a Socialist? |
35447 | You''ve heard about it? |
35447 | You, Guardie? |
35447 | You, too, side with these fanatics then? |
35447 | You? |
35447 | Your invention will succeed? |
35447 | All I have done for your sake? |
35447 | And then his short, sharp words came quick and curt and stinging:"Are you done now with this fool performance?" |
35447 | And who shall call them to account if they publish treason against the State? |
35447 | And who will determine how large the service required of each man? |
35447 | Another suicide?" |
35447 | Are n''t they glorious? |
35447 | Are we Socialists not struggling merely with what is outside? |
35447 | Are we not in reality struggling back into the primitive savage herd out of which individual manhood has slowly emerged? |
35447 | Are you content with a system which produces three million paupers in a land flowing with milk and honey? |
35447 | Are you satisfied with a system which drives hundreds of thousands of such girls into a life of shame? |
35447 | As they grow up, who shall decide at what age each child shall begin to work? |
35447 | At what period, or after how long a trial, shall it be decided that a man is a failure and must quit his chosen or assigned work? |
35447 | Barbara started at his tone of anger and whispered:"How could you be so rude-- what is wrong?" |
35447 | Barbara turned suddenly, looked into Norman''s eyes, and asked in anxious tones:"What do you mean?" |
35447 | But your treatment of the brave and daring young spirit who conceived this colony and created its wealth and influence----""Am I responsible?" |
35447 | But-- but if I_ do_--you promise to hold my hand every minute, Norman?" |
35447 | CHAPTER X SON AND FATHER When the Colonel had greeted Elena at breakfast next morning he quietly asked:"You met Norman?" |
35447 | Can I depend on you to execute my orders and mine alone?" |
35447 | Can we allow individuals to work small farms? |
35447 | Can we do it? |
35447 | Can we mend matters by destroying them all?" |
35447 | Can you kick me from your presence now as though I were a dog?" |
35447 | Come, be honest with me now-- you''re not in love with this man?" |
35447 | Confronting him a moment, Tom inquired:"Kin I ax ye a few questions?" |
35447 | Could it be possible he was in love with her in the helpless, heroic, boy fashion of his age? |
35447 | Did the sun ever shine on anything more beautiful? |
35447 | Did they not find my death- song?" |
35447 | Did you hear me?" |
35447 | Do n''t you say so, miss?" |
35447 | Do you like a system which drives thousands to the madness of drink and suicide every year?" |
35447 | Do you propose thus to stop the progress of the world?" |
35447 | Do you think I''d make a fool of myself trying before all these kids if I had n''t?" |
35447 | Do you think it perfect? |
35447 | Do you understand me?" |
35447 | Do you want it at any price?" |
35447 | Do you want to fight or work?" |
35447 | For how can this cause of the herd be one with the heart- cry of the man for the one woman on earth his mate? |
35447 | For, if men are not to be allowed to grow rich by trading, must not the State forbid private exchanges of every nature? |
35447 | Free speech has been suppressed-- in God''s name, what next?" |
35447 | Had Wolf discovered the boy''s absence from his post? |
35447 | Had Wolf suspected and played with her? |
35447 | Had the jailer recognized the trick and arrested the boy? |
35447 | Have I, too, offended?" |
35447 | Have they souls at all? |
35447 | Have you any choice as to the kind of work to which you wish to be assigned?" |
35447 | Have you forgotten all I have done in this work? |
35447 | Have you no faith in your fellow man? |
35447 | He scarcely recognized the short, sharp business accent of Norman''s voice:"Well, well, what is it?" |
35447 | He tiptoed to Wolf''s side and whispered:"Any danger?" |
35447 | How are sculptors, artists, musicians, or architects to be apportioned among different communities? |
35447 | How are we to meet them? |
35447 | How can I keep their tongues from wagging? |
35447 | How can men who are not artists, poets, or musicians determine the value of such work? |
35447 | How could you offend? |
35447 | How determine which line of goods each community shall make? |
35447 | How do you like our boasted civilization? |
35447 | How is it to be known whether the parents misappropriate the fund of a child, or favour one more than another? |
35447 | How is one community to exchange products with another? |
35447 | How many sisters shall be allowed the Catholics and how many monks, and how shall they be distributed? |
35447 | How much land will a man be required to work? |
35447 | How shall this great industry be conducted ultimately? |
35447 | How?" |
35447 | I ca n''t help it that a dozen boys come to see me and nobody ever sees the old tabbies who lie about me, can I? |
35447 | I ca n''t help it that they are foolish, can I? |
35447 | I ca n''t help it that they are old and ugly, can I?" |
35447 | I can do them, too----""But we''ve fixed the salary of the general manager at only seventy- five dollars a month, and you demand a hundred?" |
35447 | I determined to put the work to the test first----""And I was the inspiration behind your faith and daring leadership?" |
35447 | I do n''t like to press you for the secrets of your inner life, old man, but I''ve immense curiosity to know what you want with that lightning- rod? |
35447 | I must wade and carry you across this place if you''re not afraid?" |
35447 | I thought you were supremely happy this morning over the news that Dewey has smashed the Spanish fleet?" |
35447 | I want to know if she''s in command of this colony? |
35447 | If I no longer love, should I be chained?" |
35447 | If a small majority want a dance- hall and musical extravaganza, and a minority want only the serious drama, which shall it be? |
35447 | If a youth is forced to abandon a work on which he has set his heart, how can he be made of service to the community in a work he loathes? |
35447 | If all books are published will not vast sums be wasted in printing worthless trash? |
35447 | If he does n''t spend all his allowance by the end of the year can he save it and thus accumulate a private fortune? |
35447 | If it continues to cost more to support a single woman than a married one, how can equality of rights be maintained? |
35447 | If modern civilization is rotten, it ought to be destroyed, and who cares if it is?" |
35447 | If not, suppose he goes at seedtime or harvest, gets drunk, stays two weeks or two months, and destroys a year''s crop? |
35447 | If not, what shall be done when the receipts fall below expenses? |
35447 | If opinions are to be edited by the State, how can the freedom of the press be maintained? |
35447 | If selections are made, what unprejudiced, infallible board can be found competent to decide? |
35447 | If so, can the new mongrel race maintain itself against the progress and power of the great high- bred races of men? |
35447 | If so, must he ask permission where to go? |
35447 | If so, what shall hinder a treasonable conspiracy from destroying respect for its authority? |
35447 | If so, where is the justice and equality of such an arrangement? |
35447 | If so, who determines the kind of crop each farm shall raise? |
35447 | If so, who shall determine how it shall be expended? |
35447 | If so, who shall do it? |
35447 | If such an abuse of power should be made, would not the effect be to end forever all experiments and stop the progress of the world? |
35447 | If the doctor proves a failure, how will they get rid of him? |
35447 | If their souls are in subjection to his, has he not degraded them? |
35447 | If they get rid of him, how can he be saddled on another community? |
35447 | If we did n''t make the wealth, who did?" |
35447 | In my heart of hearts I''ve always been afraid of men----""You''re not afraid of me?" |
35447 | Into whose hands can this enormous power be entrusted, and how shall he be called to account?" |
35447 | Is it worth the while of those who have to fret and fuss and fume trying to make something out of nothing?" |
35447 | Is life inside or outside? |
35447 | Is n''t that the only power worth having? |
35447 | Is this an idle dream? |
35447 | Is you gone clean crazy? |
35447 | Joe repeated,"No drunkard-- shall-- what?" |
35447 | Joe seconded the motion, and the chairman asked:"Are there any remarks on the motion?" |
35447 | Marry her without even giving me the usual two weeks''notice?" |
35447 | Merciful God, would he never return? |
35447 | Nelson?" |
35447 | Nobody will haul them down here, will they?" |
35447 | Norman leaned close and whispered:"My boy, can you possibly get us two seats?" |
35447 | Or how can one poet be just to his rival if he be made the judge? |
35447 | Or shall we remain here, and hand in hand fight this battle to a finish? |
35447 | Or shall we tax the believer to pay for lighting this hall for a weekly ball? |
35447 | Or will they tell me what to do? |
35447 | Perhaps the future of humanity?" |
35447 | Secure from our young dreamer the title to this island and you will achieve an immortal deed-- you will not hesitate or fail?" |
35447 | Shall I call at your office?" |
35447 | Shall I do it?" |
35447 | Shall I go back to the faith of my fathers in the old world, and will you come with me-- my wife, my mate, my life? |
35447 | Shall a farmhand get only a dollar a day and a bricklayer two? |
35447 | Shall all women be made to work? |
35447 | Shall he be punished? |
35447 | Shall one community suffer at the hands of an incompetent man, while a physician of genius ministers to the one next door? |
35447 | Shall the resources of the colony be used thus against the bitter protest of those who do not believe in racing? |
35447 | Shall we tax the unbeliever to support a church? |
35447 | Suppose a majority demand a race- course? |
35447 | Suppose a man offends the judge? |
35447 | Suppose they all demand the right to live in one place? |
35447 | Suppose your melons would not be sweet?" |
35447 | Surely they''ll give you enough to get me a thirty- foot lightning- rod?" |
35447 | That leaves a profit of more than a hundred thousand, does n''t it?" |
35447 | That settles it, does n''t it?" |
35447 | The Colonel paused as he turned to leave the room:"You will keep up your newspaper grind, my boy?" |
35447 | The Colonel stroked her hair slowly, and asked with a smile:"What time is he coming?" |
35447 | The boy darted up on the platform, and Norman turned to Elena:"Shall we please the boy?" |
35447 | The entire colony is being disarmed this morning?" |
35447 | The herd of cattle we call men, whose souls have never spoken that divine word of character and of action-- are they men? |
35447 | The one man of all men on earth-- the man who loves you?" |
35447 | The tireless zeal with which I''ve fought your battles? |
35447 | The young poet- athlete looked at her in a dazed sort of way and stammered:"Did you ever see anything like it?" |
35447 | There must be rulers, but how shall we choose our rulers, and with what powers shall we clothe them? |
35447 | This is our compact?" |
35447 | To whom shall they answer, the State, or their superior church dignitary? |
35447 | Tom spoke vigorously:"Now will ye leave him to me?" |
35447 | We do all the work, do n''t we?" |
35447 | What are you going to do-- play the hero and rescue her from their clutches?" |
35447 | What can I do for you?" |
35447 | What can I do, for heaven''s sake?" |
35447 | What can_ you_ do for me? |
35447 | What do you say to it?" |
35447 | What do you suspect?" |
35447 | What does she say to- day if she knows what I''ve done?" |
35447 | What is the good of achievement for any community if that achievement springs from the will of one man? |
35447 | What matter if her appeal was to the emotions and not to the intellect? |
35447 | What shall be done with an actor, for example, who should spit in the face of a judge deciding adversely? |
35447 | What shall be done with the ever- increasing number of the lazy, dishonest, and criminal members of the community? |
35447 | What should he do? |
35447 | What sort of work would you like to have assigned you?" |
35447 | What will be my lot? |
35447 | What you doin''monkeyin''wid dat lightnin''-rod?" |
35447 | What''s the difference? |
35447 | What''s the trouble here? |
35447 | What''s the use? |
35447 | When our theatre is opened, who shall select the actors? |
35447 | When the cost of experiments is greater than the total income of a citizen, how can the inventor bear the expense? |
35447 | When they reached the pasture where the cows were herded, Norman asked Barbara, with some misgivings:"Honestly, did you ever milk a cow?" |
35447 | When they reached the street, Norman asked:"You knew her before she fell into evil ways?" |
35447 | Where will I find him?" |
35447 | Which should it be? |
35447 | Who asks if Humboldt was German or English, whether Spinoza was Jew or Gentile, Darwin English or French? |
35447 | Who cares to know nationalities? |
35447 | Who shall appoint editors? |
35447 | Who shall decide on the selection of the star? |
35447 | Who shall decide whether they are incompetent? |
35447 | Who shall decide which to continue and which to stop? |
35447 | Who shall determine, in this larger society, who shall be common labourers, who poets, artists, musicians, preachers, managers? |
35447 | Who shall pay for this enormous damage, and how shall the penalty be enforced? |
35447 | Who shall say when an editor is competent? |
35447 | Who will be the first heroine to fill this breach in the walls of our defence?" |
35447 | Who will decide the question of ability?" |
35447 | Why did you do it?" |
35447 | Why should n''t they? |
35447 | Why should you desire me, knowing that I thus love another?" |
35447 | Will I be allowed to choose my work? |
35447 | Will any man sacrifice his own funds and his own time on an uncertain experiment when he can receive no benefit from the work? |
35447 | Will it be dirty and disagreeable, or pleasant and inspiring? |
35447 | Will the State make good his recklessness, force him to buy his own leg, or make him hop through the year on one leg?" |
35447 | Will the new State of Ventura take direct charge of all children? |
35447 | Will the people vote for and elect their own doctor, or will he be assigned? |
35447 | Will these inferior races be placed on an absolute equality with the Aryan and will they be allowed to freely intermarry? |
35447 | Will you come----?" |
35447 | Will you come? |
35447 | Wo n''t you come?" |
35447 | Wo n''t you, dear?" |
35447 | Would n''t you?" |
35447 | You believe me?" |
35447 | You know we licked England twice----""And we kin do it again, b''gosh, ca n''t we?" |
35447 | You say you''re not afraid of lightning?" |
35447 | You understand?" |
35447 | You will raise this money?" |
35447 | You wo n''t do this any more will you? |
35447 | You''ll talk to him lovingly and tenderly as a father, wo n''t you?" |
35447 | You''re not afraid? |
35447 | You-- you will not allow me to be degraded thus-- will you?" |
7303 | ''And the people answered,How shall we go about to do this thing, for it seemeth good to us?" |
7303 | ''And when the capitalists saw that the water overflowed, they said to the people:''"See ye not the tank, which is the Market, doth overflow? |
7303 | ''But the people answered, saying:How can we buy unless ye hire us, for how else shall we have wherewithal to buy? |
7303 | Am I to understand that maternity now is unattended with risk or suffering? |
7303 | Am I to understand that there was actually no violent doings in connection with this great transformation? |
7303 | Am I to understand,I asked,"that this is a fair sample of your youth, and not a picked assembly of the more athletic?" |
7303 | Am I to understand,I finally inquired,"that handwriting, and the reading of it, like lock- making, is a lost art?" |
7303 | And are there really cases,I said,"of individuals who thus voluntarily abandon society in preference to fulfilling their social duty?" |
7303 | And can you take your vacation when you please? |
7303 | And did interest represent any economic service to the community on the part of the interest taker in lending his money? |
7303 | And did the European nations fare as well when they passed through the same crisis? |
7303 | And did the people elect the capitalists? |
7303 | And do I understand that there was no compulsion upon anybody to join the public service? |
7303 | And do not these shoes leak in winter? |
7303 | And do you mean to say that there are actually no locksmiths to- day who could open this safe? |
7303 | And has it not occurred to you to wonder why our dress was not like theirs-- why we wear skirts and they do not? |
7303 | And how about other things besides land? |
7303 | And how was it with the men? |
7303 | And so you thought I was shirking? 7303 And the majority, I understand, were the poor, not the rich-- the ones who had the wrong side of the inequalities that prevailed?" |
7303 | And there was no war? |
7303 | And was it only among the wage- earners and the small producers that this glut of men existed? |
7303 | And was this a very large cause of waste? |
7303 | And were they then, at last, enlisted by force? |
7303 | And were you the only person whose property came to him by descent without effort of his own? |
7303 | And what is that? |
7303 | And what was that? |
7303 | And what was that? |
7303 | And what was that? |
7303 | And why would they have lacked employment? 7303 And would you call that voluntary service? |
7303 | And you say this amazing depopulation took place at once after the Revolution? |
7303 | Are there any public baths open so late as this? |
7303 | Are these stuffy- looking papers what you used to call wealth? |
7303 | Are you, then, a magician? |
7303 | At about what date,I asked,"do you consider that the revolutionary movement began to pass from the incoherent into the logical phase?" |
7303 | Beyond protecting the capitalist system from its own effects, did the political government do absolutely nothing? |
7303 | But does not the reputation of particular teachers attract students to special universities? |
7303 | But how about the care of children, of the home, etc.? |
7303 | But how about the children? |
7303 | But how about the elaborate statistics on which you base the calculations that guide production? 7303 But how about the married women?" |
7303 | But how about the workmen employed by the capitalists in ministering to their luxuries? 7303 But how do you get it up to this level?" |
7303 | But how is the duty of society to safeguard the lives of its members interfered with when one person, has more capital than another? |
7303 | But is it possible that Edith has not shown you the electroscope? |
7303 | But the citizen also has relations with the public stores from which he supplies his needs? |
7303 | But to the diminution, I suspect, of the picturesqueness of the social panorama? |
7303 | But was he as well off? 7303 But what became of the churches and the clergy when the people found out what blind guides they had been?" |
7303 | But what do you do with such persons? |
7303 | But what has become of all the diamonds and rubies and emeralds, and gold and silver jewels? |
7303 | But what is this that he has been telling you? |
7303 | But what was there,I said,"about 1873 which has led historians to take it as the date from which to reckon the beginning of the Revolution?" |
7303 | But when was the use of animals for food discontinued? |
7303 | But where are the cripples, the deformed, the feeble, the consumptive? |
7303 | But who paid for the votes? |
7303 | But why did not the people elect officials and representatives of their own class, who would look out for the interests of the masses? |
7303 | But why do you attribute this miracle,I exclaimed,"for miracle it seems, to the effect of economic equality on the relation of men and women?" |
7303 | But why not? |
7303 | But would not the rate of profits have been much reduced in the case supposed? |
7303 | But you certainly do not use paper kettles? 7303 But, after all, who was it who started and kept up the quarreling over religion in former days?" |
7303 | But-- but,I exclaimed,"what if it should come on to rain on these paper clothes? |
7303 | By what is the possible production of wealth limited? |
7303 | By whom, then, were they appointed? |
7303 | CAN A MAID FORGET HER ORNAMENTS? |
7303 | Certainly, if you say so,said I, with a shiver,"but are you sure that it is not a trifle cool? |
7303 | Come, doctor,I protested,"do n''t you think a man in my position has enough riddles to guess, without making them up for him?" |
7303 | Did it buy them of the owners, or as to the plants did it build them? |
7303 | Did not men who owned property in a country-- a millionaire, for instance, like myself-- have a stake in it? |
7303 | Did the new order get into full running condition so quickly as that? |
7303 | Did this rent represent any economic service of any sort rendered to the community by the rent receiver? |
7303 | Did you think we were going to give you your death? |
7303 | Do not the histories say so? |
7303 | Do you know, Mr. West,said the former,"it strikes us as very odd that you should have that idea? |
7303 | Do you know, my boy,he said,"it is not often that the whirligig of Time brings round his revenges in quite so dramatic a way as this?" |
7303 | Do you know,I said presently,"that one feature which is missing from the landscape impresses me quite as much as any that it presents?" |
7303 | Do you mean my dress? |
7303 | Do you mean that a form of government which seems to have been the most irresponsible and despotic possible was defended in the name of liberty? |
7303 | Do you mean that the whole United States is laid out in this way? |
7303 | Do you mean that they also are made of paper? |
7303 | Do you mean that you really are afraid you will dream of the old times again? |
7303 | Do you mean that you take regular exercise in a gymnasium? |
7303 | Do you see that snakelike cord trailing away over the broken ground behind each machine? 7303 Do you see that young man yonder in the chair with so many of the others about him?" |
7303 | Does that list exhaust the number of women''s occupations in your day? |
7303 | Evidently,I said,"these are plows, but what drives them?" |
7303 | For example? |
7303 | From what source? |
7303 | HOW COULD WE INDEED? |
7303 | Has this belief,I asked,"been thus far practically confirmed by any progress actually made in the assurance of what is true as to these things? |
7303 | Have n''t you some real money to show us,said Edith,"something besides these papers-- some gold and silver such as they have at the museum?" |
7303 | Have we had enough of economics for the day? |
7303 | Have you any idea,I asked,"how much this credit of$ 4,000 would have been equal to in purchasing power in 1887?" |
7303 | Have you ever looked over any of the treatises which our forefathers called political economies, at the Historical Library? |
7303 | How about public holidays; have you abandoned them? |
7303 | How about the condition of the masses in a country thus reduced to commercial vassalage to the capitalists of another country? 7303 How about the women?" |
7303 | How could it have been true? |
7303 | How did the Government acquire the lands and manufacturing plants it needed? |
7303 | How did the capitalists resist inventions? |
7303 | How did they make that out? |
7303 | How do you make that out? |
7303 | How does our banking system strike you as compared with that of your day? |
7303 | How does the integrated character of the economic system affect our attitude toward improvements or inventions of any sort in economic processes? |
7303 | How far does this park extend? |
7303 | How long does this public gymnastic education last? |
7303 | How long is it since people ceased to call themselves Catholics, Protestants, Baptists, Methodists, and so on? |
7303 | How near was the world-- that is, of course, the nations whose industrial evolution had gone farthest-- to this condition when the Revolution came? |
7303 | How so, precisely? |
7303 | How so? |
7303 | How too late? |
7303 | How was it in the United States? |
7303 | How? |
7303 | I beg your pardon,she said, raising her eyebrows a little,"what did I understand you to ask for?" |
7303 | I should suppose so, but why, then, did the poor so eagerly seek to serve the rich when the rich refused with scorn to serve one another? 7303 I suppose you refer to competition?" |
7303 | I understand that in your day hay was the main crop of New England? |
7303 | If all the landlords and money lenders had died over night, would it have made any difference to the world? |
7303 | If men go on,I said,"growing at this rate in the knowledge of divine things and the sharing of the divine life, what will they yet come to?" |
7303 | If, then, the majority did not like any existing arrangement, or think it to their advantage, they could change it as radically as they wished? |
7303 | In just what way,I asked,"did the new order tend to decrease exchanges with foreign countries?" |
7303 | In short,said I,"while under our system we conformed men to things, you think it more reasonable to conform things to men?" |
7303 | In such a race, which crew was likely to fare worse, that of the winning or the losing galley? |
7303 | In what respect, then, were the rich and poor equal? |
7303 | In what way did this law operate? |
7303 | Is it possible that Dr. Leete has not told you of our universal language? |
7303 | Is it possible that the improvement had been so small that there could be a question raised whether there had been any at all? |
7303 | Is it possible you have not guessed that? 7303 Is it possible,"I exclaimed,"that you mean to say people no longer quarrel over religion? |
7303 | Is she to compete in anything? |
7303 | Is this Arlington the same town that was a suburb of the city in my time? |
7303 | It sounds like a riddle, does n''t it? 7303 It sounds so, does n''t it? |
7303 | May I ask what kind of rings, for what sort of use? |
7303 | May not production fall short of possible consumption? 7303 Meanwhile, you see that great building with the dome just across the square? |
7303 | No doubt,I said,"since you preserve our churches as curiosities, you must have better ones of your own for use?" |
7303 | Not wash them!--why not? |
7303 | Now tell us about interest; what was that? |
7303 | Now, what is the explanation? 7303 Of course,"replied the superintendent,"but did it not have the same in your day? |
7303 | Of what use indeed was it that coal had been discovered, when there were still as many fireless homes as ever? 7303 On the other hand, what were the theory and practice pursued by the capitalists in carrying on the economic machinery which were under their control? |
7303 | Opportunities for what? |
7303 | Said not the serpent in the old story,''If you eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge you shall be as gods''? 7303 Should you have supposed that it would so operate?" |
7303 | Since you furnish so much on public or common account, why not furnish everything in that way? 7303 So much for the intellectual qualities that marked the victors in the race for wealth under the miscalled competitive system; what of the moral? |
7303 | Talking about housework,I said,"how did they manage about houses? |
7303 | Talking of paper,said Edith, extending a very trim foot by way of attracting attention to its gear,"what do you think of our modern shoes?" |
7303 | Tell us, Julian,said the doctor,"did the rich go to one another and ask the privilege of being one another''s servants or employees?" |
7303 | Tell us, Robert, did not our ancestors recognize the facts of the situation you have described? 7303 That is to say, one sex paid too much attention to dress and the other too little?" |
7303 | That means, I suppose, that rubbers too as articles of wear have been sent to the museum? |
7303 | The Greater Self-- what does that mean? |
7303 | The least progressive of arts? 7303 Then anybody can set the fashion?" |
7303 | Then if not, and if the examination is to begin in five minutes, are we not likely to be late? |
7303 | Then, on the whole, competition was not a palliative of the profit system? |
7303 | This, you say, is what the nineteenth- century economists themselves taught concerning the outcome of the profit system? |
7303 | To what cause did they ascribe the crises? |
7303 | To what has the struggle of the nations for foreign markets in the nineteenth century been aptly compared? |
7303 | To what have our historians been wo nt to compare the condition of the community under the profit system? |
7303 | Very good,said the doctor;"it will doubtless be very short, and what do you say to attending it this time in person? |
7303 | Was it meant by this expression that there had been actually more food, clothing, and other good things produced than the people could use? |
7303 | Was this so before the great Revolution? |
7303 | Well, and has not such a collection a value to the student of history? |
7303 | Well, to begin with,I said, as the dome of the Statehouse caught my eye,"what on earth have you stuck up there? |
7303 | Were adulteration and scamped work the only devices by which sham reductions of prices was effected? |
7303 | Were farmers the only class of small capitalists who were injured rather than helped by labor- saving machinery? |
7303 | What are the other things that would not be equal? |
7303 | What are you thinking about? |
7303 | What caused the change? 7303 What did that mean?" |
7303 | What do you do? |
7303 | What do you mean by the great bonfire? |
7303 | What do you mean? |
7303 | What do you mean? |
7303 | What do you suppose it is made of? |
7303 | What have you to say of the moral aspect of this expenditure for luxury? |
7303 | What is Edith''s specialty? |
7303 | What is in the safe? |
7303 | What is it that is missing? |
7303 | What is it? |
7303 | What is that about Masters of the Bread? |
7303 | What is that building which we are just passing over that has so much glass about it? |
7303 | What is that you say? |
7303 | What is that? |
7303 | What is that? |
7303 | What is the ranking? |
7303 | What is the topic they discuss? |
7303 | What is the use of going further? |
7303 | What is this mystery? 7303 What is this?" |
7303 | What name did our ancestors give to the various economic disturbances which they ascribed to overproduction? |
7303 | What sort of a feeling? |
7303 | What was rent? |
7303 | What was the excuse? |
7303 | What was the general economic effect of competition? |
7303 | What was the general effect of rent and interest upon the consumption and consequently the production of wealth by the community? |
7303 | What was the idea of it? |
7303 | What was the market? |
7303 | What was the reforesting? |
7303 | What was the term by which they most commonly described the presence in the market of more products than could be sold? |
7303 | What were some of the modes of luxurious expenditure indulged in by the capitalists? |
7303 | What were the methods which the capitalists engaged in production and exchange made use of to bring trade their way, as they used to say? |
7303 | What, on the other hand, will happen if I run through my credit before the year is out? |
7303 | What, on the other hand, would be the effect on consumption of an unequal division of consumable products? |
7303 | Where had the progress been? |
7303 | Who are these? |
7303 | Who is to be the new teacher? |
7303 | Who were they? |
7303 | Why any more than a woman''s? |
7303 | Why could not the world receive earlier the revelation it seems to find so easy of comprehension now? |
7303 | Why did the peace require such a great amount of keeping? 7303 Why not?" |
7303 | Why not? |
7303 | Why should I not? 7303 Why so?" |
7303 | Why then? |
7303 | Why, yes; it is a man''s dress I suppose, is it not? |
7303 | Would not the judges even ask me by what right or title of ownership I claimed my wealth? |
7303 | Would such a thing be possible nowadays as full storehouses and a hungry and naked people existing at the same time? |
7303 | Yes,I said,"it is indeed all there, but why were we so long in seeing it?" |
7303 | You are easily the mistress of my waking thoughts,I said;"but can you rule my sleeping mind as well?" |
7303 | You mean garments made of sheep''s hair? 7303 You mean that it was only the pressure of want or the fear of it that drove the poor to the point of becoming the servants of the rich?" |
7303 | ''If a man love not his brother whom he hath seen, how shall he love God whom he hath not seen?'' |
7303 | --Now, Frank, will you tell us exactly what this proposition means?" |
7303 | Am I saying too much, Julian?" |
7303 | And they said:"''"Behold, what need have ye at all of these capitalists, that ye should yield them profits upon your labor? |
7303 | And were the rich and poor equal in the courts? |
7303 | And why have ye no money? |
7303 | Are they the faces of philosophers? |
7303 | Are ye not our men to do our embassies?" |
7303 | Besides, what is the need? |
7303 | But am I wrong in assuming that ill health was a general condition among your women? |
7303 | But how about the economic operation of this plan?" |
7303 | But the capitalists said to the people:"Shall we hire you to bring water when the tank, which is the Market, doth already overflow? |
7303 | But the capitalists, you say, did not even pretend to feel any responsibility for the welfare of their subjects?" |
7303 | But was it true that all had equal opportunities for getting rich and bettering themselves?" |
7303 | But what assumption could have been more regardless of facts than this? |
7303 | But what is the use of lengthening a list which might be made interminable? |
7303 | But who, think you, were the true friends and champions of private property? |
7303 | But, for that matter, how do you prepare soles of paper that will last?" |
7303 | Ca n''t you tell us,"I added, turning to the superintendent--"how do you moderns diagnose the fashion mania that made our lives such a burden to us?" |
7303 | Can it be that God sends sweeter souls to earth now that the world is so much fitter for them? |
7303 | Can you forgive us, Julian, for taking such an advantage of your ignorance?" |
7303 | Can you reassure us on this point?" |
7303 | Could there conceivably be but one answer to that question? |
7303 | Curious, is n''t it, when one comes to think of it, that the riper civilization has grown, the more perishable its records have become? |
7303 | Did it never occur to you why the families of the well- to- do and cultured in your day were not larger?" |
7303 | Did our great- grandfathers recognize in this excess of goods over buyers a cause of economic disturbance?" |
7303 | Did the individual pursuit of riches under your system necessarily tend to increase the aggregate wealth of the community? |
7303 | Did they not see that this glut of men indicated something out of order in the social arrangements?" |
7303 | Did they receive the same treatment?" |
7303 | Did this first and essential condition of any true competitive struggle characterize the competitive system of your day?" |
7303 | Do I understand that this modern religion is considered by you to be the same doctrine Christ taught?" |
7303 | Do n''t tell me that they have been given up, like wool?" |
7303 | Do tell us what the secret was, Julian?" |
7303 | Do you consider that you really know more about them than we did, or that you know more positively the things which we merely tried to believe?" |
7303 | Do you know that this new social order of which I have so strangely become a witness has hitherto had something of this mirage effect? |
7303 | Do you mean to say that the competition of capitalists for trade never operated to reduce profits?" |
7303 | Do you remember his name?" |
7303 | Do you see the inference?" |
7303 | Do you see the point?" |
7303 | Do you suppose we want to be shut up here forever?" |
7303 | Do you think you would ever have guessed that?" |
7303 | Does not that imply, practically, a governmental control or initiative in fashions of dress?" |
7303 | Doth nothing come out of much?" |
7303 | Doth plenty breed famine? |
7303 | Doubtless I am overlooking some important fact, but did you not say that all the people, at least all the men, had a voice in the government?" |
7303 | Finally, what is implied in the equal right of all to the pursuit of happiness? |
7303 | Fine- looking young people, are they not? |
7303 | HOW ABOUT THE WOMEN? |
7303 | Had you not noticed that you were offered no such food?" |
7303 | Has that process gone on, or has it possibly been reversed?" |
7303 | Has the sculptor idealized them? |
7303 | Have I erred in describing the working of your system in this particular, Julian?" |
7303 | Have we not painted too black a picture? |
7303 | Have you anything to say on that point beyond what has been said?" |
7303 | Have you reflected that if I had dreamed it all you would have had no existence save as a figment in the brain of a sleeping man a hundred years ago?" |
7303 | How can men be free who must ask the right to labor and to live from their fellow- men and seek their bread from the hands of others? |
7303 | How cometh it that ye may not come by the water in the tank? |
7303 | How could we ever bring ourselves to eat you?'' |
7303 | How do you manage that now?" |
7303 | How does this theory agree with the facts stated in the histories?" |
7303 | How else could it have assessed and collected taxes or exacted a dozen other duties from citizens? |
7303 | How is it about that?" |
7303 | How is it that our profits are become unprofitable to us, and our gains do make us poor? |
7303 | How many of the great fortunes heaped up by the self- made men of your day, Julian, would have stood that test?" |
7303 | How was he going to go about it? |
7303 | How was it in this respect under the rule of the rich? |
7303 | How was it settled who should have the good houses and who the poor?" |
7303 | How was that managed? |
7303 | How was that?" |
7303 | How were they able to make so much trouble?" |
7303 | I asked,"that the workers in each trade regulate for themselves the conditions of their particular occupation?" |
7303 | I sincerely hope you will forgive me, in consideration of my motive, and not----""Not what?" |
7303 | I whispered-- for, in spite of his assurance, I could not realize that they did not hear me--"are we here or there?" |
7303 | If she ever was his equal, why did she cease to become so, and by a rule so universal? |
7303 | If such a person should flatly refuse to render any sort of industrial or useful service on any terms, what would be done with him? |
7303 | In that case what was the result?" |
7303 | Is it not because ye have no money? |
7303 | Is it not so?" |
7303 | Is not that what we have been talking about?" |
7303 | Is that too much to say? |
7303 | Is that what you mean?" |
7303 | Just when was it discontinued?'' |
7303 | May not the demand for consumption exceed the resources of production?" |
7303 | Most of the farmers of the West were pulling in it toward the end of the nineteenth century.--Was it not so, Julian? |
7303 | No doubt there is a compulsory side to your system for dealing with such persons?" |
7303 | Now can the English workman live on less wages than before? |
7303 | Now tell us, Julian, was your million dollars the result of your economic ability, the fruit of your industry?" |
7303 | Now what could an apologist of private capitalism and the profit system possibly have to say about the science of wealth? |
7303 | Now, Emily, what would be the natural effect of such a lack of correspondence between the inlet and the outlet capacity of the cistern?" |
7303 | Now, did the capital wasted in these two ways represent all that the profit system cost the people?" |
7303 | Now, how do you account for that? |
7303 | Now, is it not possible that we have done it injustice? |
7303 | Now, the making of garments is carried on, I suppose, like all your other industries, as public business, under collective management, is it not?" |
7303 | Now, were not our clergymen justified in counting on the continued support of women, whatever the men might do?" |
7303 | Now, what notable characteristic and main feature of the business system of our forefathers resulted from the glut thus produced?" |
7303 | Now, what will compel the people to exercise vigilance as to the public administration? |
7303 | On what ground would you refuse to return me my million, for I assume that you would refuse?" |
7303 | Presently she said:"What were we talking about? |
7303 | See ye not how by this means the tank must overflow, being filled by that ye lack and made to abound out of your emptiness? |
7303 | Shall you consider it impertinent if I try to make the matter a little clearer to them?" |
7303 | Tell me, were the families of the well- to- do and cultured class in the America of your day, as a whole, large?" |
7303 | That would have made a more difficult problem to deal with, would it not?" |
7303 | The prospect of rising as a motive to reconcile the wage- earner or the poor man in general to his subjection, what did it amount to? |
7303 | The question first suggested by this statement is: To whom, to what class did these contrasts tend to make life more amusing? |
7303 | To their question, Who was to pay them for what the people had taken from them? |
7303 | To what was this outburst of inventive genius due?" |
7303 | To whom, then, properly belongs that two hundredfold enhancement of the value of every one''s labor which is owing to the social organism?" |
7303 | Was it a conviction that health would be favored by avoiding flesh?" |
7303 | Was it because the poor so loved the rich?" |
7303 | Was it necessarily worse than the condition of the masses of the superior country?" |
7303 | Was it not so?" |
7303 | Was it your statesmen, perchance your economists, your scholars, or any other of your so- called wise men? |
7303 | Was the old system of property distribution, by which the few held the many in servitude through fear of starvation, an exception to this rule? |
7303 | Was this claim well based?" |
7303 | Was this of the same nature?" |
7303 | Well might Americans say to themselves''If such things are done in the green tree, what shall be done in the dry?'' |
7303 | Were not the odds against him far greater in the latter struggle than they could have been, if he were a tolerably good shot, in the former? |
7303 | Were they bigoted also? |
7303 | Were they tools of the ecclesiastics?" |
7303 | What are you turning so red for?" |
7303 | What chattel- slave system ever made a record of such wastefulness of human life, as that? |
7303 | What could be expected save what resulted-- a dwarfed and enfeebled physique and a semi- invalid existence? |
7303 | What did I say to the theater for that evening? |
7303 | What did the new order do with them? |
7303 | What did the world, as a rule, think of the great fortune- makers of your time? |
7303 | What do you see down there to suggest a question?" |
7303 | What do you suppose, now, this costume of mine cost?" |
7303 | What great thing do they wherefore ye render them this tribute? |
7303 | What has Julian been telling you?" |
7303 | What have you to say as to the merits of this controversy?" |
7303 | What is liberty? |
7303 | What is life without its material basis, and what is an equal right to life but a right to an equal material basis for it? |
7303 | What is that ground?" |
7303 | What is the difficulty?" |
7303 | What need for excuses or defenders had a system so deeply based in usage and antiquity as this? |
7303 | What sort of human types did they represent? |
7303 | What useful work could have been got out of such people as we were, however well disposed we might have become to render service? |
7303 | What was competition and what caused it, referring especially to the competition between capitalists?" |
7303 | What was his plan?" |
7303 | What was luxury?" |
7303 | What was that?" |
7303 | What was the basis of final settlement?" |
7303 | What was there about the old system of private capitalism to account for a_ fiasco_ so tremendous?" |
7303 | What was to be left even to the next generation?" |
7303 | What were the facts?" |
7303 | What were the other two?" |
7303 | What were the qualities and practices which the successful seeker after great wealth must systematically cultivate and follow? |
7303 | What wonder that their riches became a badge of ignominy and their victory their shame? |
7303 | Where could we have been fitted into any sort of industrial service without being more hindrance than help?" |
7303 | Who indeed would not have been impatient in their place, and cried as they did,''How long, O Lord, how long?'' |
7303 | Who settles the question what you shall wear?" |
7303 | Who was there to fight on the other side? |
7303 | Why add reproach to the burden of such a failure as that? |
7303 | Why are they not mine now, and why should they not be returned to me?'' |
7303 | Why did n''t I feel that way about the duty of working in the nineteenth century? |
7303 | Why did n''t it keep itself, as it does now?" |
7303 | Why did not the farmer, as a sort of capitalist, pile up his profits on labor- saving machinery like the other capitalists?" |
7303 | Why did their censures effect no change?" |
7303 | Why do you laugh? |
7303 | Why not? |
7303 | Why should we not? |
7303 | Why so?" |
7303 | Why was this?" |
7303 | Will it be said that at least the later theory of inheritance was more humane, although one- sided? |
7303 | Will ye mock us? |
7303 | Will you tell me who or what sets the fashions?" |
7303 | Wo n''t you please tell me, then, what they meant by calling themselves free and equal?" |
7303 | Would they not have been thrown out of work if luxury had been given up?" |
7303 | Would they not melt, and at a little strain would they not part?" |
7303 | You are Julian West?" |
7303 | exclaimed Mr. Barton, when I told him this;"who would have expected it? |
7303 | he asked as we left the house,"or would you like to attend the afternoon session the teacher spoke of?" |
7303 | how can you possibly warm such great bodies of water, which are so constantly renewed, especially in winter?" |
7303 | no, why should they? |
7303 | said I,"do n''t you write letters any more?" |
7303 | said the doctor,"what has so suddenly dried up the fountains of your pity? |
7303 | there is then at least one invalid?" |
7303 | why not?" |
7303 | why should we give you of the water which we have gathered, for then we should become even as ye are, and perish with you? |
11217 | A hot day''s just nothing but a hot day to you, is it? |
11217 | A little harder to make a map this time, is n''t it? 11217 A-- quest?" |
11217 | Ai n''t you getting awful hungry, Aunt Kate? |
11217 | Am I''moored''any place? |
11217 | And I presume it never occurred to you, Katie, that neither Ann nor I was fairly surfeited with opportunities for conversational initiative? 11217 And Italy? |
11217 | And do they never try to rescue others from fires? |
11217 | And do you mean to say you would want me-- anyhow? |
11217 | And have you-- you are so good as to confide in me, so I presume to ask questions-- have you said anything to Ann? |
11217 | And how did you happen to be so unkind as to call me up, Ann? |
11217 | And how much,pressed Katie,"did the least experienced and skillful make?" |
11217 | And is_ that_ all that matters? 11217 And it''s trying to be waked out of a sound sleep, is n''t it, uncle?" |
11217 | And knowing nothing, you took her in? |
11217 | And look here, Katie, what''s this about Prescott? 11217 And never tried to stop her?" |
11217 | And the explanation? 11217 And then after a while you left this town?" |
11217 | And what are you talking about? 11217 And what do you suppose he was prying around the Island for?" |
11217 | And what does she mean to you, Katie? |
11217 | And what would you say, Worthie,she asked after they had gone a little way in silence,"was the difference between thinking and wondering?" |
11217 | And who, pray, is the man that mends the boats? |
11217 | And why not? |
11217 | And why, if I may venture still another blundering question, was poor Nora held responsible for a cough she never coughed? |
11217 | And yet,she turned to him, after following his glance to a girl''s tense, white face,"what can they do? |
11217 | And you call_ that_ not vulgar? 11217 And you feel, do you, Katie, that the need of your life just now is for danger?" |
11217 | And you''ll be down there-- mending boats? |
11217 | And you''ll be good to Ann? |
11217 | And you''ll be there a little while, wo n''t you,he asked wistfully,"before you go-- you do n''t know where?" |
11217 | And you''ll-- come and see me? |
11217 | And you,he said softly,"do n''t know anything about the''underlying principles of life''? |
11217 | And your mother, dear? 11217 Ann,"he asked gently,"have n''t you a''right to''--if we want you to?" |
11217 | Ann--_who?_ Ann--_what?_"Ann_ who!_ Ann_ what!_ That''s a nice way to speak of my friends! 11217 Ann--_who?_ Ann--_what?_""Ann_ who!_ Ann_ what!_ That''s a nice way to speak of my friends! |
11217 | Ann? |
11217 | Are n''t you coming with us? |
11217 | Are they sorry they''re not as old as somebody else? |
11217 | Are you a socialist? |
11217 | Are you sure-- you know? |
11217 | Are you thanking God for yourself or for Watts, sonny? |
11217 | As a favor to me, Watts, will you be good to the little dog? |
11217 | As a favor to_ you_, Miss Jones,said Watts, making it clear that for his part--"Watts,"she asked,"how long have you been in the service?" |
11217 | Aunt Kate,he asked,"when''s Miss Ann coming back?" |
11217 | Aunt Kate? |
11217 | Aunt Kate? |
11217 | Aunt Kate? |
11217 | But I suppose,she began again,"he would n''t be very likely to be there mending boats now?" |
11217 | But could n''t you be court- martialed for doing that? |
11217 | But how could you think that? |
11217 | But how do you know he''ll rail? |
11217 | But how do you know, Aunt Kate? 11217 But is any-- individual-- worth it?" |
11217 | But of course,she added,"you paid it back just as soon as you could?" |
11217 | But she knows? |
11217 | But she''s coming back? 11217 But to keep the other country from getting a corner of it?" |
11217 | But was n''t there_ any_ fun, dear? |
11217 | But what did you tell him I wanted to see him_ for_? |
11217 | But what else is there? 11217 But where is your future then, Wayne?" |
11217 | But why hate me? |
11217 | But why not, Aunt Kate? |
11217 | But why not? |
11217 | But why, Worthie? |
11217 | But why, uncle? 11217 But why? |
11217 | But wo n''t I have_ any_ gun''tall, Aunt Kate? |
11217 | But wo n''t she be back? |
11217 | But you like Ann, do n''t you, Wayne? |
11217 | But you never feel that way, so you are contented and like the service, Watts? |
11217 | But, Aunt Kate,he pursued after another silence,"what''s father making guns for-- if there are n''t going to be any?" |
11217 | But, Aunt Kate-- won''t there be anybody''tall to kill? |
11217 | But, Worth,she asked, when she had blinked the gnat away,"what did you tell this other man?" |
11217 | But, dearie, what will you do when we land? |
11217 | But_ she_ knows? |
11217 | Ca n''t they come back, Katie? 11217 Called where?" |
11217 | Called_ away_? |
11217 | Can you always do what you want to do? |
11217 | Dear little chappie, and Aunt Kate''s a cross mean old thing, is n''t she? |
11217 | Dear me-- is he a public speaker? |
11217 | Did he--_die_? |
11217 | Did n''t I think it might be--_nice?_ Oh Katie-- you''d have to know what that day had been-- what so many days-- all days-- had been. 11217 Did n''t know I could do that, did you?" |
11217 | Did n''t you get him? |
11217 | Did n''t you tell me, Nora, that your cousin''s wife was very clever at sewing-- at fixing things over? |
11217 | Did n''t you_ never_ have a dog? |
11217 | Did n''t your papa get you''nother one? |
11217 | Did you ever wonder,she asked, with real curiosity,"how in the world you happened to have such a daughter?" |
11217 | Did you find out all you wanted to know from him, Aunt Kate? |
11217 | Did you see it, Katie? |
11217 | Did you see''Daisey- Maisey''? |
11217 | Do all those people belong here? |
11217 | Do many of these men go to church? |
11217 | Do n''t Papa know''bout them? |
11217 | Do n''t they-- don''t they have to-- work? |
11217 | Do n''t you see that it is? 11217 Do n''t you want me to enjoy my place any more? |
11217 | Do n''t you want them to know what you think, Aunt Kate? |
11217 | Do n''t you want to tell me what you know? 11217 Do n''t_ go?_ Kate, what''s the matter with you? |
11217 | Do n''t_ go?_ Kate, what''s the matter with you? 11217 Do n''t_ you_ know?" |
11217 | Do they let them burn-- just because they know fire for a dangerous thing? |
11217 | Do you always say what you mean, Aunt Kate? |
11217 | Do you disapprove of this affair between Nora and Watts? |
11217 | Do you ever hear a call, dear heart? 11217 Do you know-- do you know,"choked Katie--"that she may kill herself?" |
11217 | Do you think I''d leave a sick girl sitting out here all alone? |
11217 | Do you think I''d let them come back? 11217 Do you think socialism''s going to remove all the suffering from the world? |
11217 | Do you want to know the honest truth? |
11217 | Do you-- know? |
11217 | Does n''t it occur to you, Katie, that as a matter of fact the other country might like a chance to develop its resources? 11217 Does n''t it seem to you,"she asked gently of the Reverend Saunders,"that it''s just an awful pity?" |
11217 | Does n''t that ever seem to you a beautiful thing? |
11217 | Does she_ look_ tired? |
11217 | Does-- must one always''gain''something? |
11217 | Elizabeth Barrett Browning is your favorite poet, is n''t she, Ann? |
11217 | Envied him? 11217 Escape-- what?" |
11217 | For what? |
11217 | Fred,she asked, moved by her never slumbering impulse to find out about things,"just what is it you care for in Helen? |
11217 | Frighten_ who?_"Ann,she repeated demurely. |
11217 | From_ you_? |
11217 | Get who? |
11217 | Goin'', Aunt Kate? |
11217 | Harry,she asked, in rather metallic voice,"how about that affair of yours down in Cuba?" |
11217 | Harry,she asked,"have you said anything to your mother?" |
11217 | Have you any reason,she asked,"to think Ann cares for you?" |
11217 | Have you had them before? 11217 Have you made many excursions into the great outer world?" |
11217 | He goes-- with you and Ann? |
11217 | He likes his work? |
11217 | Hello there,he said;"it''s been a long time since we saw you, ai n''t it?" |
11217 | Her dream or your dream, Wayne? |
11217 | Home? 11217 Honestly now, do you get that?" |
11217 | Honey, will you play with him sometimes? 11217 How could you know each other? |
11217 | How do you know there''ll be another? |
11217 | How do you know,she asked, still demurely,"that I would like to marry any?" |
11217 | How long you been here? |
11217 | How long you goin''to stay? |
11217 | How old are you, Katie? |
11217 | How old is Miss Ann? |
11217 | How should I know? |
11217 | I s''pose you''ve seen the chickens? |
11217 | I think you have had a hard time,Katie murmured, thinking to herself that one must have had hard time--"And what''s that to you? |
11217 | I wonder, Nora, would she come and help us? |
11217 | I wonder,he voiced it,"where it''s going to lead you? |
11217 | In a world of homeless dogs, why should n''t I feel badly? |
11217 | In for what? |
11217 | In one of those? |
11217 | In what way is he a queer genius? |
11217 | Is her mother living? |
11217 | Is it a wicked world? |
11217 | Is it coming back? |
11217 | Is it--? |
11217 | Is n''t it scandalous? |
11217 | Is n''t it the limit the way they''do you''at those girls''schools? |
11217 | Is n''t it? |
11217 | Is n''t poor Nora permitted to cough, if she is disposed to cough? 11217 Is n''t that what life is? |
11217 | Is n''t there ever something makes you do things you know are n''t the things to do? |
11217 | Is n''t this heat distressing? |
11217 | Is this-- Captain Jones? |
11217 | Isn''t-- what a pity? |
11217 | It does look nice this way, does n''t it? |
11217 | It hurts when applied to dogs, does it? |
11217 | It seems we ought to be able to tell father whether they''re taking good care of it, does n''t it, Worth? |
11217 | It shows what sort of hostess I am, does n''t it? 11217 It would seem rather inconsiderate, would n''t it? |
11217 | It''s great about your friend coming; Miss--? |
11217 | It''s lovely, is n''t it? |
11217 | It''s not so simple a matter for you, is it-- this''being free''? 11217 Joke? |
11217 | Just what kind of man would you like to marry? |
11217 | Just what kind of man,asked Katie demurely,"would you say I had better marry?" |
11217 | Katie, do you know how I''d like to pay you back? 11217 Katie, where did you learn it was very fetching to say outrageous things so demurely?" |
11217 | Katie, why do you think it''s so funny? 11217 Katie, would you think a man a brute to propose to a girl on the day she was giving an important dinner?" |
11217 | Katie, you do n''t mean to marry Prescott, do you? |
11217 | Katie,he asked abruptly,"has she no people? |
11217 | Katie,he asked passionately,"you mean that if walking together we ca n''t always be all in the sunshine--?" |
11217 | Katie,he asked pleadingly,"where has Ann gone?" |
11217 | Katie,he asked,"how much do you really care for the army?" |
11217 | Katie,he besought,"wo n''t you help me? |
11217 | Katie,he demanded sharply,"have you been disagreeable to Ann?" |
11217 | Katie,he demanded,"how much did you ever talk to this fellow? |
11217 | Katie,he said-- he never spoke her name save in that timid, lingering way--"don''t you think you''re rather over- emphasizing the sadness?" |
11217 | Katie,he suddenly demanded,"what were you up to? |
11217 | Katie,he was asking,"where did you first meet her? |
11217 | Katie,it made him ask,"do n''t you think you''d better-- quit?" |
11217 | Katie,she approached it, in Zelda''s own delicate fashion,"what would you think of Major Darrett and me joy- riding through life together?" |
11217 | Lady or chorus girl? |
11217 | Like her? |
11217 | Look here,she said to the Major,"what is this? |
11217 | Love her? |
11217 | May I ask to whom I am indebted for this kindness? |
11217 | Miss Kate,said Nora,"can you come and look at the table a minute? |
11217 | No slam on either party? |
11217 | No? 11217 Nora,"asked Katie, standing with her back to her,"what is it about Miss Forrest?" |
11217 | Nora,she said, and Katie''s face was white and pleading,"did n''t Miss Ann say anything about leaving me a note?" |
11217 | Not like what? |
11217 | Not the Major Forrest family? |
11217 | Now do you_ see_? |
11217 | Now look here, Katie, surely you-- a girl of the world-- the good sort-- aren''t going to be so melodramatic as to dig up a''past''for me, are you? |
11217 | Now was n''t that just sweet of father? |
11217 | Now wo n''t you tell me what I can do? |
11217 | Oh Worthie,she whispered,"is n''t it_ lovely_ to be getting home?" |
11217 | Oh do n''t you think we''re a good deal of a joke, uncle? |
11217 | Oh yes, help them get higher wages, I suppose? |
11217 | Oh yes--_yes_--what is it? |
11217 | Oh you are, are you? 11217 Oh, I say, jolly night, is n''t it?" |
11217 | Oh, am I? 11217 Oh, do they?" |
11217 | Oh, he-- then he is here? |
11217 | Oh, is that so? 11217 Oh, that so? |
11217 | Oh, will it? |
11217 | Oh, would he? |
11217 | Oh-- so he''s a guide, is he? 11217 Oh--"gasped Katie, and lost all color--"Oh--""Katie--?" |
11217 | Oh--_yes_? |
11217 | Oh_ yes_, Wayne? |
11217 | On the Island? 11217 Over roads where there might be no sunshine? |
11217 | Poor little doggie, does he want a pat? |
11217 | Prescott, did n''t you hear something? |
11217 | Remember your telling me about visiting at Fort Riley when you were quite a youngster? 11217 Rescue them for what? |
11217 | See what-- dear Katie? 11217 Shall we walk on?" |
11217 | She arrived this afternoon? |
11217 | She goes back? |
11217 | She the girl that''s sick? |
11217 | Showing up the full- blowness of the bride? 11217 Some joy- ride, do n''t you think?" |
11217 | Something is the matter? |
11217 | Tell me,said Katie, more seriously,"why do you want to marry?" |
11217 | Tell me,said Katie,"what''s in the great outer world?" |
11217 | That you may invest it in dangerous literature? |
11217 | The day who came? 11217 The what, Aunt Kate?" |
11217 | The-- now what is it, Aunt Kate? |
11217 | Then do n''t you see? 11217 Then each of those girls made a dollar today?" |
11217 | Then may I ask, mysterious one, what you''re laughing at? |
11217 | Then pray why have you any business here? |
11217 | Then where will you go, Katie? |
11217 | Then, how dare I? 11217 There are lots of silly people in the world, are n''t there?" |
11217 | There are so many ways in which automobiles make life more bearable, do n''t you find it so, Miss Jones? |
11217 | They''re out and out materialists, are n''t they? 11217 Think not?" |
11217 | Think not? |
11217 | This is not a bad looking suit, is it? 11217 This is what I mean-- it''s not the end, is it?" |
11217 | Though a man''s past is not a woman''s business? |
11217 | Through sleeping? |
11217 | Uncle, does it ever come home to you that life''s a pretty serious business? |
11217 | Uncle, how can you? 11217 Uncle,"Katie asked quietly,"do you ever think much about Christ?" |
11217 | Up where? |
11217 | Want me to get the man that mends the boats? |
11217 | Was it the day_ she_ came? |
11217 | Was it? 11217 Was there ever anybody in the world so wonderful-- so funny-- as Katie? |
11217 | Watts say anything about whether he was still mending boats? |
11217 | Wayne,she asked slowly,"what do you mean?" |
11217 | Wayne,she asked,"have you felt this way a long time? |
11217 | Wayne? |
11217 | We know, do n''t we, how hard it is for army men to find futures as civilians? |
11217 | Well I suppose--this she ventured tremulously, imploringly--"you went to West Point-- and were-- did n''t finish?" |
11217 | Well sir, what do you think? 11217 Well then what did you do?" |
11217 | Well where_ is_ she? |
11217 | Well, Ann,she began, her voice high pitched and unsteady,"this is about the limit, is n''t it?" |
11217 | Well, Katie, you-- you do n''t mean to take it up, do you? |
11217 | Well, Wayne,she laughed,"are n''t you getting a little-- cryptic? |
11217 | Well, did n''t you know,he demanded passionately,"that you could_ live_ with_ us_?" |
11217 | Well, uncle, dear uncle,she laughed,"hast forgotten the days when nothing mattered so much as having the leaves the right shade of yellow?" |
11217 | Well, what did she do it for? |
11217 | Well, what of it? |
11217 | Well, what people? 11217 Well, what would you think,"he suggested,"of''asking''for a system more interested in conserving nervous systems than in producing millionaires? |
11217 | Well, what_ does_ get you there? |
11217 | Well, where did I leave myself? 11217 Well, who is she? |
11217 | Well,he said defiantly,"and what if she was? |
11217 | Well? |
11217 | Well? |
11217 | What Forrest? |
11217 | What are those men doing? |
11217 | What are you doing it for? |
11217 | What are you doing this for? 11217 What being, Aunt Kate?" |
11217 | What can I do? |
11217 | What did it? 11217 What do I care about sunny paths, if I must walk them alone?" |
11217 | What do you know about me? |
11217 | What do you mean? 11217 What do you mean?" |
11217 | What do you mean? |
11217 | What do you want to show me, dear? |
11217 | What do you_ think_ about me? |
11217 | What for? 11217 What indeed?" |
11217 | What is it about Katie? |
11217 | What is there about me to pity? |
11217 | What made you think I was a socialist? |
11217 | What rules? |
11217 | What shall I do? 11217 What thinking about, Worthie dear?" |
11217 | What will you do? |
11217 | What will you have? 11217 What would you say they look upon as the most important thing in life?" |
11217 | What''ll I tell him, Aunt Kate? |
11217 | What''s a different matter? |
11217 | What''s his name? |
11217 | What''s your theory? |
11217 | When did you begin to want to know about the''underlying principles of life''? |
11217 | When doctors or lawyers do n''t do things right ca n''t you sue them and get your money back? 11217 Where do you live?" |
11217 | Where have you been? |
11217 | Where would you have to go, Aunt Kate? 11217 Where?" |
11217 | Which is Aunt_ Kate? 11217 Which of what?" |
11217 | Who are her people, Fred? |
11217 | Who do you suppose the scoundrel_ is_? |
11217 | Who is she, Katie? |
11217 | Who is your stunning friend, Katie? |
11217 | Who? |
11217 | Whom do you think I could do good to? |
11217 | Why a blow? |
11217 | Why are n''t there? |
11217 | Why are you sorry for me? |
11217 | Why ca n''t you take as well as I can take? |
11217 | Why do n''t you know all the world''s like that? 11217 Why do you need her? |
11217 | Why is it? 11217 Why not?" |
11217 | Why not? |
11217 | Why not? |
11217 | Why really, it''s quite as good as a play, is n''t it? 11217 Why should n''t I let myself feel badly?" |
11217 | Why would it--? |
11217 | Why, Ann, ca n''t you guess what it is about Katie? 11217 Why, Aunt Kate, do n''t you know him? |
11217 | Why, Katie,Ann began,"does it make so much difference-- just because you know him?" |
11217 | Why, Katie,he cried,"_ does_ it matter so? |
11217 | Why, Katie,laughed her brother,"what do you mean by coming over here and interviewing men on their politics?" |
11217 | Why, Wayne, you can scarcely expect me to be-- wholly pleased, can you? |
11217 | Why, honey,she laughed,"does it really seem to you such a gloomy world-- world in which there will be nobody to kill? |
11217 | Why-- why, Wayne? |
11217 | Why? 11217 Why?" |
11217 | Will you take Worth? |
11217 | With the man that mends the boats? |
11217 | Wo n''t you--_fight_ for it? |
11217 | Work what wonder? |
11217 | Worth dear, will you do something for your Aunt Kate? |
11217 | Worth, was this one of the men? |
11217 | Worth,she asked, grotesquely overdoing unconcern,"where''s Miss Ann? |
11217 | Worth,she asked,"what is there on the_ other_ side of that little island?" |
11217 | Worthie, is that why you like him? 11217 Would I be able to_ help_ being myself?" |
11217 | Would Miss Ann be sorry she''s not as old as you? |
11217 | Would he annihilate me? |
11217 | Would you be so kind as to tell her I am here? 11217 Would you like to hear my favorite quotation from Scripture?" |
11217 | Would you rather I came there? 11217 Would you say that''fine and virtuous women''have succeeded in keeping the world a perfectly safe place for women?" |
11217 | Would you say, Katie,she asked anxiously,"that she is the sort of girl to make my boy a good wife?" |
11217 | Y-- es; but why would n''t he, Aunt Kate? 11217 Yes, and when I''ve finished telling you, you''ll go back to your sunny paths, wo n''t you? |
11217 | Yes, are n''t they lovely? |
11217 | Yes, but if you get in the habit of looking at it as an end, will there be anything left for it to be a means to? |
11217 | Yes, but, father, is n''t a good gun a gun that kills folks? 11217 Yes, do n''t we? |
11217 | Yes, is n''t it? 11217 Yes, it is really terrible, is n''t it? |
11217 | Yes,agreed her companion,"pleasant weather, is n''t it?" |
11217 | Yes,said Kate grimly,"pleasant weather, is n''t it?" |
11217 | Yes? 11217 Yes?" |
11217 | Yes? |
11217 | You are thinking,she ventured,"that your feeling for it is going to be-- hard for me?" |
11217 | You call that a good place to work? |
11217 | You can breathe better this way, ca n''t you? |
11217 | You do n''t mean, do you,--looking away, as if with scarcely the courage to say it--"that I''m to''stop''--everything?" |
11217 | You do not approve of these things? |
11217 | You do wonder, do n''t you, Aunt Kate? 11217 You going out in it?" |
11217 | You going to take it, Aunt Kate? |
11217 | You got a dog at home? |
11217 | You hear me, Katie? |
11217 | You heard anything about him, Worth? |
11217 | You know her? |
11217 | You know, Katie-- what I told you-- what I must tell you--"Oh yes,said Katie,"there was something, was n''t there?" |
11217 | You mean she is not coming back? |
11217 | You mean,she asked, in slow, hushed voice,"that I should stay here-- here?--as a friend of yours?" |
11217 | You seen the new cow? |
11217 | You sick? |
11217 | You think you could? 11217 You think_ weather_ makes any difference? |
11217 | You too? |
11217 | You want to hear about it? |
11217 | You wanted me? 11217 You were--?" |
11217 | You will wait for that, wo n''t you? 11217 You''ll try to do that for me, wo n''t you, dear fair- minded, loving- spirited Katie? |
11217 | You''re not pleased? |
11217 | You''re very fond of her? |
11217 | You''ve walked sunny paths, have n''t you? 11217 You_ struck_--an officer?" |
11217 | You_ will_ laugh, Katie, wo n''t you? |
11217 | Your Miss Osborne and the fifty cents a day girls-- all one world? 11217 _ Do_ they know? |
11217 | _ God_? |
11217 | _ Katie? 11217 _ Struck_--your superior officer?" |
11217 | _ Try_? |
11217 | _ Was_ it so common, Katie? 11217 _ You_--needed_ her_?" |
11217 | ''Cause he knows everything? |
11217 | ''Sent_ away_?'' |
11217 | ''What do you mean?'' |
11217 | ''What right had you to dispose of him?'' |
11217 | A call to a freer country than any country you have known? |
11217 | A fine thing? |
11217 | A little red light would flash-- sometimes it would flash straight into my brain-- and I''d say''Number, please?'' |
11217 | After all, the department might throw him down-- who knew what it might not do?--and then what would have been the use? |
11217 | After all, what would one have? |
11217 | Am-- am I keeping you from anything you should be doing?" |
11217 | And I suppose,"she laughed scornfully,"you''re going into the ranks? |
11217 | And as it is to be something of an army wedding, may I not have you, whom Harry calls the''most bully army girl''he ever knew?" |
11217 | And do n''t you see that it would be the most fascinating-- altogether jolliest sort of thing for us to try? |
11217 | And do you not see, Katie, that that makes her about the biggest thing in life to me?" |
11217 | And even if she had-- how find her there if she did not wish to be found? |
11217 | And here a life-- Why what kind of people are we?" |
11217 | And how dared you bring your lawyer here to me? |
11217 | And how many would be let stay in the places where they had been put? |
11217 | And if in fancy you sometimes let yourself drift into that other country, am I with you there? |
11217 | And if you_ do_ know each other,"--turning upon him furiously--"need we all act like thieves?" |
11217 | And it interested her the way people said:"Prescott? |
11217 | And now the spirit''s dead and the form''s left-- and what''s so absurd as a form that rattles dead bones?" |
11217 | And now? |
11217 | And on the heels of the whirlwind knocking down the country of make- believe would come the girl from a vast unknown rushing wildly from-- what? |
11217 | And that other thing there was to tell her--? |
11217 | And was all hating to go when all men saw? |
11217 | And what was there left? |
11217 | And what would happen now? |
11217 | And when one is tired of exursions-- I suppose one is at perfect liberty to abandon them--?" |
11217 | And when within the world of May that robins love one was finding a whole undiscovered country to explore? |
11217 | And why did one worm go one way and in a lot of million years be a little boy and another worm go another way and just never be anything but a worm? |
11217 | And why should we?" |
11217 | And why this mad passion of mine for destruction? |
11217 | And why--? |
11217 | And why? |
11217 | And why? |
11217 | And with such an adorable shy little way? |
11217 | And yet did the things the years had made one ever really abdicate? |
11217 | And you ca n''t help that either, can you? |
11217 | And your brother, Katie, have you told him? |
11217 | And, Katie,_ is n''t_ there something else? |
11217 | And, taking no thought for the morrow, is there any reason in the world why you should n''t go out now and have a beautiful drive? |
11217 | And_ N''est- ce- pas_--well, Watts would say_ N''est- ce- pas_ meant''ai n''t it''? |
11217 | Are n''t they a little too precious, too hardly won, too freighted with memories to be lightly cast aside?" |
11217 | Are n''t you idealizing this forest service? |
11217 | Are outlived things to push us apart? |
11217 | Are we going to make no efforts to set ourselves free? |
11217 | Are you listening?" |
11217 | At last she asked:"And Wayne, which would you say I was?" |
11217 | At least that''s what we''re told by our superiors, and are you the kind of young woman to question what you''re told by your superiors? |
11217 | At luncheon Katie suddenly demanded:"Wayne, where do you get dangerous literature?" |
11217 | At peace in the beauty of form, might Ann not find an inner beauty? |
11217 | Because Ann could not dream her way to realities did it mean that Katie must fight her way to them? |
11217 | Because Ann could not find joy was it to be that Katie could not have peace? |
11217 | Believe in me enough to feel I will put through anything I begin? |
11217 | But did that make the distances less vast? |
11217 | But did you ever eat the eggs that were triumphantly announced by the darlingest bantam--?" |
11217 | But do n''t you ever hear them, uncle? |
11217 | But do you care much about plumbing when looking at"--her pause before it might have been one of reverence--"The Madonna of the Chair?" |
11217 | But do you know what I think of the''game''you play?" |
11217 | But have you really no notion of why she went away?" |
11217 | But instead of alluding to them he asked abruptly:"How is she today?" |
11217 | But is n''t it bigger than that thing of being members of the same family-- hurting each other''s feelings? |
11217 | But it was not five minutes later she asked, with studied indifference:"Pray what does this absurd being look like?" |
11217 | But just what were those things that mattered? |
11217 | But may n''t desertion be a brave thing? |
11217 | But one who suggested dreams of Tuscany when taking observations on the use of the salad fork-- was there not hope unbounded for such a one? |
11217 | But she came back to him to say, and this with the oddest smile of all,"Would n''t it be a queer sensation for us? |
11217 | But what good are they? |
11217 | But why should it be"too much"for the daughter of a minister to hear anything about God? |
11217 | But you were the beginning, were n''t you?" |
11217 | But you''re leaving the army, are n''t you? |
11217 | But, Katie, if you get_ very_ tired waiting for it-- don''t you believe you might take it-- most any way it came?" |
11217 | But, dear Katie-- the old things? |
11217 | But-- go home to what? |
11217 | CHAPTER III"Kate,"demanded Captain Jones,"what''s that noise?" |
11217 | Ca n''t they?" |
11217 | Ca n''t we always just leave it unsaid? |
11217 | Ca n''t you see what a curse it is to mix times that way?" |
11217 | Ca n''t you tell me all about it?" |
11217 | Call to a country where the things which bind you could bind no more? |
11217 | Call to her? |
11217 | Can it? |
11217 | Clever? |
11217 | Could Ann keep within hailing distance of one''s imagination? |
11217 | Could it be--? |
11217 | Could you bring yourself to stay just long enough to see that I am not trying to do you good? |
11217 | Could you get word for him to come here-- here, to my house-- right away? |
11217 | Could you go in a boat?" |
11217 | Could you send for your cousin''s wife to help us, Nora?" |
11217 | Did Ann have it in her to live up to the things one wished to believe about her? |
11217 | Did he have it in him remotely, unavowedly, to suspect? |
11217 | Did it also mean an impossible one? |
11217 | Did it know it was going to do it? |
11217 | Did it perhaps love to take them in, knowing that upon the sands of this once upon a time the other could keep no foothold? |
11217 | Did knowing-- seeing-- spoil hating? |
11217 | Did life thwarted in one place take it out in another? |
11217 | Did n''t I think that might be nice? |
11217 | Did n''t I?" |
11217 | Did n''t Katie agree that a girl who could make her own way distanced the girls who could do nothing but spend their fathers''money? |
11217 | Did n''t it ever occur to you that God had more to do with your Something Somewhere than He did with things done in His name in Centralia?" |
11217 | Did n''t she love you-- and help?" |
11217 | Did n''t she want poor Ann to have a good time-- and feel at home-- and be admired? |
11217 | Did n''t you know what Katie must suffer in your leaving like that?" |
11217 | Did people lose the power to hold themselves in the one that made you_ you_? |
11217 | Did she belong to anybody? |
11217 | Did she care for her when she was somber and shy, and resent her when happy and confident? |
11217 | Did she think he had any chance? |
11217 | Did she think in another hundred million years that little bird up there would be something else? |
11217 | Did she think those little ants knew that they were alive? |
11217 | Did_ chairs_ count? |
11217 | Did_ he_ think she was not there? |
11217 | Do I know her?" |
11217 | Do n''t you know we all can be fine and free until it comes up against_ our_ lives?" |
11217 | Do n''t you know, Aunt Kate-- the man that mends the boats?" |
11217 | Do n''t you love me''t all any more, Aunt Kate?" |
11217 | Do n''t you see how that must appeal to the sense of humor of the one about to go down?" |
11217 | Do n''t you see, even Zelda thinks it stunty?" |
11217 | Do n''t you think, Katie, it would be fun to look in on the dance up here at the club house?" |
11217 | Do you ever have a picture of our venturing together into the unknown ways-- daring-- suffering-- rejoicing--_growing_? |
11217 | Do you really get_ at_ her, Katie?" |
11217 | Do you suppose Miss Ann knows, Aunt Kate, that she used to be a frog?" |
11217 | Do you suppose it will ever be any different?" |
11217 | Do you suppose, Aunt Kate, we''ll ever know as much as Watts?" |
11217 | Do you think Mike and Pat are pretty names, Aunt Kate?" |
11217 | Do you think you could bear it with Christian fortitude if I were to tell you I''m beginning now to try and figure out what I was smiling at?" |
11217 | Do you understand anything except things that nobody else wants to understand? |
11217 | Does n''t he mean to come over?" |
11217 | Does n''t it make you think of those sturdy forefathers of yours who came to it long ago, when it was an unknown land, and braved dangers for it? |
11217 | Does she care for golf?" |
11217 | Does that mean it must kill for us what we have said is the biggest emotion-- experience-- the greatest joy and brightest hope life has brought us? |
11217 | Does the absurdity of it never strike them?" |
11217 | Even their vocabularies ca n''t disguise them, and if that can''t-- what could? |
11217 | For heaven''s sake, what did you mean?" |
11217 | For what? |
11217 | From what other world?--and why? |
11217 | From whence? |
11217 | Funny? |
11217 | Get right into the inner things that are the matter and bring peace and good will and loving kindness everywhere?" |
11217 | Going for a drive does n''t commit one to any philosophy of life, or line of action, does it? |
11217 | Had Ann''s yearning for love been the breath blowing to flame Katie''s yearning for understanding? |
11217 | Had Katie ever heard her say anything about him? |
11217 | Had Katie ever seen any one so beautiful? |
11217 | Had Katie ever seen such eyes? |
11217 | Had it killed it in her? |
11217 | Handy, ai n''t it?" |
11217 | Has Ann another name? |
11217 | Has she gone for a walk?" |
11217 | Have so much? |
11217 | Have you no soul?" |
11217 | Have you thought of that? |
11217 | He did not know the voice, it was too faint, too far- away, but a suggestion in it made his own voice and hand unsteady as he said:"Yes? |
11217 | He had halted beside them and Katie was saying, with her usual cool gaiety:"You care for this day, too, do you? |
11217 | He looked at her meditatively, and then asked, humorously but gently:"Well Katie, what were you expecting me to do? |
11217 | He looked at his niece and smiled as he asked:"Katie dear, are you becoming world weary?" |
11217 | He said to her at the last, with that direct boyish smile it seemed could not frighten even a startled bird:"You think you are going to like it here?" |
11217 | He took a step backward for the weighty, crushing:"Well, you''ve seen the_ horses_, have n''t you?" |
11217 | He walked right into it with the never- failing"Why?" |
11217 | He yearns for a christening?" |
11217 | Hear whom moaning and sobbing?" |
11217 | Here in a place like this-- what do you know about it? |
11217 | His silence led Katie to gasp:"Wayne, are you becoming-- anti- militarist?" |
11217 | How about the case of Miss Katherine Wayneworth Jones? |
11217 | How can I be a half- breed if I''m a thoroughbred?" |
11217 | How can I tell whether I would or not? |
11217 | How can you expect me to stick to a subject when paths open out on all sides of you like that? |
11217 | How charming your host was? |
11217 | How could one combat with words, or in action, that rooted so much deeper than mere words or action? |
11217 | How could she be resting in an hour which had just been tacked on to her life? |
11217 | How could she help it? |
11217 | How could she hope to go laughing through a world which sobbed? |
11217 | How could she outrage the army as long as Wayne had done so? |
11217 | How dare you-- standing for the You of the world-- dampen the splendid ardor of my hate?" |
11217 | How did it happen that things you made up were things I had dreamed about without really knowing what I was dreaming? |
11217 | How did she get there? |
11217 | How did she go? |
11217 | How did you come to know her? |
11217 | How do you need her?" |
11217 | How get out of the sand? |
11217 | How many people would create for themselves the background it was assumed they belonged in just because they had been put in it? |
11217 | How might Ann''s soul not flower when she at last saw God as a God of beauty? |
11217 | How much of life''s ground all unknown to her had these poor little slippers trodden? |
11217 | How turn from life when she saw life suffering? |
11217 | How_ do_ you know? |
11217 | I did n''t say what kind, did I?" |
11217 | I do n''t care if you do, only if you tell him anything, wo n''t you try and make him understand everything? |
11217 | I do n''t make the crazed crowds, do I?" |
11217 | I had my suspicions, and that night I asked,''Uncle, did you preach the sermon you meant to preach this morning?'' |
11217 | I hope she is fond of the water?" |
11217 | I presume I go on record as the worst sort of bounder in asking if you really care greatly about living there?" |
11217 | I take it, however, that she was one of those''excursions''into the great outer world?" |
11217 | I thought-- oh you''ll find her for me-- won''t you? |
11217 | I trust it was satisfactory?" |
11217 | I was so upset about them champagne glasses--""Well, where is it? |
11217 | I wonder if I may ask one thing more? |
11217 | I wonder if you would do this? |
11217 | I wonder if you''re prepared to go where it may lead you? |
11217 | I wonder-- why?" |
11217 | I wonder-- would you be willing to come up to my room with me-- help make a cup of tea for us and-- stay with me a little while?" |
11217 | I''m going to try sleeping in there-- isn''t insomnia a fearful thing? |
11217 | I--"She paused, coloring slightly as she said with a little laugh:"We all like to be liked, do n''t we, Katie? |
11217 | If I thought that-- You do n''t think, do you, Katie, that that was what he was trying to work you for?" |
11217 | If even they were to be gently grouped with the wicked as more to be pitied than hated, then whom would one hate? |
11217 | If he were to come there--? |
11217 | If he were to kiss her in the way he hungered to kiss her would it wake nothing more than that sick terror in her wonderful eyes? |
11217 | If he''s charming to them-- to you-- what do you suppose he seemed to me as he stood there smiling at me-- looking so sorry for me--? |
11217 | If it ever seems I can be of any use-- in any way-- will you come where you know you can find me?" |
11217 | If making a place for you here is going to make one for me there-- on the inside, I mean-- you''re not going to refuse to take me in, are you?" |
11217 | If she had had a chance, when things were going badly, to sit in such a chair and rest, might the river have seemed a less desirable place? |
11217 | If so,"--he went boldly to the edge of it, then halted, and concluded with a boyishly bashful humor--"will you keep my application on file?" |
11217 | If you ca n''t offer a safe place, why rescue at all? |
11217 | If you''re going to pity me, why do n''t you do it sincerely instead of scoffingly? |
11217 | In the letter she received that night he wrote:"Katie, is it going to spoil it for us? |
11217 | Is he a spiritual or an economic guide?" |
11217 | Is it my fault that I do n''t know anything about life? |
11217 | Is it so strange I_ loathed_ the Bible? |
11217 | Is n''t it only square to give me a chance to demonstrate the honor of my worthlessness?" |
11217 | Is n''t it queer how we do-- know without knowing? |
11217 | Is n''t it rather-- oh, unthrifty, to let pasts and futures spoil presents? |
11217 | Is n''t she-- moored any place?" |
11217 | Is n''t there a popular notion that our pasts have something to do with our futures?" |
11217 | Is she pretty? |
11217 | Is something wrong?" |
11217 | Is that prohibitive?" |
11217 | It forced him to an unwilling, uneasy:"What more could a girl want?" |
11217 | It gives me a sort of--''Oh I am on to you, uncle old boy''feeling that is most--""Disconcerting?" |
11217 | It lets_ us_ out so beautifully, does n''t it?" |
11217 | It seemed indeed that this life was in her hands-- for was it not her hands had kept it a life? |
11217 | It was only-- what shall I say-- would there be such a thing as usurping beauty? |
11217 | It was that gnawed at the heart of it.... How go to bed that night without knowing that Ann had a bed? |
11217 | It was the suggestion in the motto led her to ask:"Tell me, have you really no idea, have you never had so much as a suspicion of why Ann went away?" |
11217 | It would be droll, would n''t it, to have some one on a far hill call--''But why do n''t you come over here?'' |
11217 | It''s been a fine sleep, has n''t it? |
11217 | It''s hard not to squeeze''em though, ai n''t it?" |
11217 | Just drop me a hint sometime when you are not going to be at home, will you? |
11217 | Just how bad is it, anyhow?" |
11217 | Just one long thing of trying and failing? |
11217 | Just what brand of boredom are you planning to inflict?" |
11217 | Just what did it make Katie think of? |
11217 | Just what is it she means to you?" |
11217 | Just what is it the army does?" |
11217 | Just what were her plans? |
11217 | Katie knew her? |
11217 | Katie, what is it? |
11217 | Less to be desired? |
11217 | Lord, do n''t they have it easy though?" |
11217 | Loving a thing because you do n''t know it is n''t a very high way of loving it, is it? |
11217 | Loving you-- laughing, splendid you-- how can I? |
11217 | Mann? |
11217 | Masculine dotes on discovering feminine-- but have you ever noticed what the rest of the feminine dote on doing to that discovery? |
11217 | May I tell you what it is I want to do?" |
11217 | Might it not be that some of the most genuine Florentines had never been to Florence? |
11217 | Might it not be--? |
11217 | Might not Ann be her gun? |
11217 | Might not Mrs. Prescott find the reality in the possibilities? |
11217 | More fires? |
11217 | Motives are slippery things, do n''t you think so? |
11217 | Moved by an impulse half serious, half mischievous she asked:"You would say then, Wayne, that Ann seems to you more of a lady than Zelda Fraser?" |
11217 | Need I add that it means''why''? |
11217 | No ties? |
11217 | None of the rest of us seem to be inquiring into our sources of revenue, so why should you?" |
11217 | Not the words but the sob behind them moved him to ask gently:"Katie dear, what is it? |
11217 | Nothing is to be gained-- But for God''s sake, Katie, what is she doing here? |
11217 | Now did he perhaps hold back in timidity from that world of the trivial things? |
11217 | Now how can I throw it away?" |
11217 | Now how did I start? |
11217 | Now what do you think of that? |
11217 | Now what in the world had he meant by that? |
11217 | Now when you ask her if she likes Benedictine, do n''t be at all surprised to have her dreamily murmur:''But why should oranges always be yellow?''" |
11217 | Now will you telephone Prescott, or shall I? |
11217 | Of all the unheard of-- outrageous-- unpardonable-- What did you_ mean_"--turning savagely upon her--"by selling false hair?" |
11217 | Of course there are sometimes a few little things--""Why did you enter the army, Watts?" |
11217 | Of course there must have been lots of other fellows in love with her-- a girl like that-- but had she cared for any of them? |
11217 | Oh Katie-- how did you know? |
11217 | Oh yes-- he was in Cuba, was n''t he?" |
11217 | One''s own kind and the other kind just one kind, after all? |
11217 | Or do you like him-- just because you like him?" |
11217 | Or rather I meet you down town? |
11217 | Order her out of the house?" |
11217 | Out of sympathy with the army?" |
11217 | Perhaps it did make her think of hard things, but was that any reason for failing in the things that made all this possible? |
11217 | Perhaps the heat was enervating, but was that sufficient reason for embarrassing one''s hostess? |
11217 | Perhaps you know that she came on the Island from the south bridge?" |
11217 | Question is-- not what did you do yesterday-- but what good are you to- day-- what are you worth to- morrow? |
11217 | Rangers? |
11217 | Reach all the aches and fill all the empty places? |
11217 | Really? |
11217 | Resistance made her face the more stern as she went on:"Do you think I''m going to impose on you-- just because you know so little? |
11217 | Rough, steep roads, perhaps?" |
11217 | Run after her? |
11217 | Saved her by making her save you?" |
11217 | See how it works-- not altogether for the good of the works, you see? |
11217 | Shall I ask him again?" |
11217 | Shall I call some one?" |
11217 | Shall I see if we can get Watts?" |
11217 | Shall I tell you what life is like?" |
11217 | She ca n''t reach far enough to count, so why make herself unhappy?" |
11217 | She is lovely, is n''t she?" |
11217 | She rides?" |
11217 | She sought refuge in a frigid:"I beg pardon?" |
11217 | She turned around to ask oddly:"Why, Wayne, why all this heat? |
11217 | She was silent, then asked:"Why?" |
11217 | She will be with you for the summer?" |
11217 | Should a man walking on a tight- rope yield to every playful little desire to chase butterflies?" |
11217 | Smiling, but eyes speaking for the depth of the meaning, she said:"I''d rather be only half in the sunshine than be--""Be what, Katie?" |
11217 | So it''s the man that mends the boats says these hateful things about me, is it?" |
11217 | So low? |
11217 | So of course"--with his little shrug Katie loved--"what''s my having a month on my hands?" |
11217 | So you''re going to be very festive in this house to- night?" |
11217 | So you''re not going away leaving it in any such distressing state, are you?" |
11217 | So-- what''s that nervous word? |
11217 | Something moved her to ask:"Wayne, do you think you would have done it, if it had not been for Ann?" |
11217 | Sometimes they heard her stir; as one day soon after Ann''s coming Katie had said:"Ann, just what is it is the matter with your vocal chords?" |
11217 | Starting in at your age-- with your training-- to''work from the bottom up''--is that it?" |
11217 | Startled, peculiarly gratified, impishly delighted, she yet replied lightly:"A lady, is she? |
11217 | Sympathetic? |
11217 | Taken it? |
11217 | That call? |
11217 | That fellow-- what''s his name? |
11217 | That one was indeed bound hand and foot and brain and heart and spirit? |
11217 | That thing of really''helping''some one?" |
11217 | That thing that makes us keep on even when our Something Somewhere wo n''t have anything to do with us?" |
11217 | The good time you had?--how gay it was? |
11217 | The man who mended the boats knowing about Ann? |
11217 | The things that are n''t nice about him are n''t his fault, Worthie, so we must n''t be hard on him for them, must we? |
11217 | The two different worlds had sent Ann away; was it, in a way she was unable to cope with, likewise to send him away? |
11217 | Then how could one step from that place without leaving a conspicuous looking vacancy? |
11217 | Then in the distance she heard a mocking voice insinuatingly inquiring:"But why not, if it''s all one world?" |
11217 | Then the once upon a time of the sandpile did not shut them out-- they who had known another once upon a time? |
11217 | Then what? |
11217 | Then what? |
11217 | Then why should it be mine now-- any more than yours?" |
11217 | Then why this air of discovery?" |
11217 | Then wo n''t you take me in? |
11217 | Then, desperately resolved to break through, she asked boldly:"Am I keeping you from anything important?" |
11217 | Then-- what to do? |
11217 | There''s more to wonder about than there is to think about, do n''t you think so, Aunt Kate?" |
11217 | Things fought for, tested, mellowed by our fathers and mothers, and their fathers and mothers? |
11217 | Things was as they_ was_, held Watts, and how could anybody but a fool expect them to be any way but the way they_ was_? |
11217 | Think of them, not in the old grooves, but just as it comes in to you as the story of a life? |
11217 | Those beautiful_ old_ things which the generations have left us? |
11217 | Though could she? |
11217 | Though pray why should one wish to be anything so terrifying as indispensable?" |
11217 | Though visioning be child of desiring-- was the vision less splendid, and was not the desire ennobled? |
11217 | Though what''s the good working a morning like this? |
11217 | To be followed with:"Important? |
11217 | To desert a thing we''ve gone beyond-- to have the courage to desert it and walk right off from the dead thing to the live thing--? |
11217 | To do less and get more is not what you''d call a spiritual aspiration, is it?" |
11217 | To have vague association with the mysterious things of life, and yet not to have"made a mess of things"--what more could one ask? |
11217 | To my uncle''s? |
11217 | To whom?" |
11217 | Was Watts the real philosopher when he said"things was as they was"? |
11217 | Was he happy, or had the unhappiness of his marriage gone too deep? |
11217 | Was he meaning to deliver that lecture on the army? |
11217 | Was he young or old? |
11217 | Was he-- a wizard? |
11217 | Was he-- would she say he was one to be kind of easy on a fellow, or did she think he took his religion pretty hard? |
11217 | Was it because she could not get things together it seemed to her she must make them all stop? |
11217 | Was it because the girl of the years was too worn for assertiveness that the girl of fancy could seem the all? |
11217 | Was it irritating to have people for whom hot days were but hot days call heat distressing? |
11217 | Was it often like that?--that the things created for the fun and the joy found the paths of tragedy? |
11217 | Was it only that she slumbered-- and sometimes stirred a little in her sleep?--And when_ she_ awoke? |
11217 | Was it something of that same force which bounded boisterously up in boy and dogs which was stealing over Ann-- softening, healing, claiming? |
11217 | Was it the day you took her in? |
11217 | Was it true-- as the man who mended the boats would hold-- that the one made the other possible-- only to be excluded from it? |
11217 | Was it_ gone_? |
11217 | Was n''t he quite given to falling in love with pretty girls? |
11217 | Was n''t that funny?" |
11217 | Was she a school friend? |
11217 | Was she capable of taking unto herself the past and temperament with which one would graciously endow her? |
11217 | Was she heading for a general? |
11217 | Was some one looking for Ann? |
11217 | Was that it? |
11217 | Was that what came of violating the canons? |
11217 | Was that why he could be moved to no sense of responsibility about stray dogs? |
11217 | Was that why he was a good man for the service and had no ambitions as civilian? |
11217 | Was that, too, something that would have hurt them? |
11217 | Was the hurt to one''s friends the punishment one got for it? |
11217 | Was the whole world losing its mind just because it had been such a hot day? |
11217 | Was there any other fellow? |
11217 | We know''em-- don''t we, old Queen?" |
11217 | We may come to the garden party?" |
11217 | We who have come so close? |
11217 | We''re all in the grip of dead things, are n''t we? |
11217 | Well, what of him? |
11217 | Were the things which"mattered"forging a religion of their own? |
11217 | Were you ever in a little town in Indiana?" |
11217 | What about Miss Forrest? |
11217 | What are you doing it for?" |
11217 | What are your puny little problems of the church compared with people''s lives? |
11217 | What boats does he mend, Aunt Kate wanted to know, and what business has he landing them on our Island? |
11217 | What can I do about it?" |
11217 | What can you know of the real sorrows and hardships of life?" |
11217 | What chance did I ever have to know anything real? |
11217 | What could be farther from serving one''s own day than rendering to it the dead forms of what had been the real service to a day gone by? |
11217 | What could do that? |
11217 | What did it matter whether the universe was wonderful or not if the wonderful thing in one''s own heart was to be denied life? |
11217 | What did she mean? |
11217 | What did that matter, the wise gardener would scornfully demand, when there were growing things underneath pushing their way to the light? |
11217 | What did you do?" |
11217 | What did you say her name was?" |
11217 | What did you want?" |
11217 | What do I know about you?" |
11217 | What do you know about_ me_?" |
11217 | What do you know? |
11217 | What do you mean by leaving her all alone?" |
11217 | What do you think, Katie? |
11217 | What does this all mean?" |
11217 | What good thing can come of hate?" |
11217 | What had become of that girl? |
11217 | What had happened? |
11217 | What had she been through? |
11217 | What had she done save prove that she could do nothing? |
11217 | What have you done? |
11217 | What have you to_ gain_ by it?" |
11217 | What in the world did she mean by saying she''d like to be a deserter herself? |
11217 | What is it they call them? |
11217 | What is it, Katie? |
11217 | What is it? |
11217 | What is it?" |
11217 | What is the world coming to? |
11217 | What is this all about? |
11217 | What more can we ask?" |
11217 | What of that union? |
11217 | What other method is there?" |
11217 | What right had you to assume I''d do this?" |
11217 | What was it had closed the door and shut in those things that were killing Ann? |
11217 | What was that thing less fleeting than fancy, more imperative than sympathy, made Ann mean more than things which had all her life meant most? |
11217 | What was there left for her? |
11217 | What was there to talk about so important as talking of nothing? |
11217 | What were those things that had filled up and choked Ann''s poor soul? |
11217 | What will you_ have_?" |
11217 | What would be the use? |
11217 | What would you think of our trying to do that?" |
11217 | What''s the good living in a dangerous age if you do n''t get hold of any of the danger? |
11217 | What''s the trouble?" |
11217 | What''s the use making a gun at all if it is n''t going to kill folks?" |
11217 | What''s the use? |
11217 | What?" |
11217 | What_ did he mean?" |
11217 | What_ shall_ I do?" |
11217 | What_ was_ a hot day-- save a hot day? |
11217 | When did she go?" |
11217 | When did she say, dear,"she pleaded,"that she would be back?" |
11217 | Where did you meet him? |
11217 | Where did_ you_ know her?" |
11217 | Where had she come from? |
11217 | Where was she all this time? |
11217 | Where would he take it?" |
11217 | Where would you know each other? |
11217 | Where''s Ann gone?" |
11217 | Where? |
11217 | Where? |
11217 | Where_ had_ Ann come from? |
11217 | Whether either the hard blighting religion of Ann''s father, or the aesthetic comfortable religion of her uncle"mattered"much to them? |
11217 | Who is it, please?" |
11217 | Who was Ann? |
11217 | Who would get the nice corners it had been taken for granted certain people should have just because they had been fixed up for them in advance? |
11217 | Who?--Why?" |
11217 | Why are n''t you?" |
11217 | Why ca n''t you do the same thing with educators? |
11217 | Why could they not reach then? |
11217 | Why did you come home? |
11217 | Why do n''t you adopt it for your favorite, too? |
11217 | Why do n''t you assert your right?" |
11217 | Why do n''t you give them jobs?" |
11217 | Why do n''t you go and see? |
11217 | Why does it make you want to grin?" |
11217 | Why does one go anywhere? |
11217 | Why had Ann been dressed that way? |
11217 | Why had she done it? |
11217 | Why had she not had the courage to press it? |
11217 | Why had she wanted to kill herself? |
11217 | Why how under the sun,"she asked, laughing wildly,"did you ever meet Major Darrett?" |
11217 | Why not let people_ be_ what they were? |
11217 | Why not let them be themselves, instead of what one thought they would be from what one knew of their lives? |
11217 | Why not ride with me instead? |
11217 | Why not spend next season in Washington with him? |
11217 | Why should I stop her? |
11217 | Why should you have to stay here-- if you do n''t want to? |
11217 | Why this haughty aloofness? |
11217 | Why was I born like that?" |
11217 | Why was it given the Anns-- and not the Vernas? |
11217 | Why were you born with your brain cells screwed into question marks?--and_ why_ do I have to go through life getting them unscrewed?" |
11217 | Why what do you think I''m made of? |
11217 | Why would it be so much worse for Captain Prescott to marry Ann than it would be for Ann to marry Captain Prescott? |
11217 | Why would n''t I want you? |
11217 | Why''s that your affair?" |
11217 | Why, why not? |
11217 | Why-- why, Wayne? |
11217 | Will it do any good for me to get in the crowd? |
11217 | Will it go away? |
11217 | Will it make you thrill?" |
11217 | Will you do that? |
11217 | With the emotion of the world surging in and out like that how could any one claim to have a solution for the whole question of living? |
11217 | Wo n''t you run along and play?" |
11217 | Wo n''t you tell me where I can find her? |
11217 | Wo n''t you trust me enough to know that you will not be asked to do anything that would be too hard? |
11217 | Women can even look at wondrous soft brown eyes and lovely tender mouths through those''Who was your father?'' |
11217 | Would Katie tell him of her life and her people? |
11217 | Would Katie tell him something about her? |
11217 | Would he go so far as to say the first use for the rifles--? |
11217 | Would n''t it be better to forget?" |
11217 | Would n''t you rather do without the gun and know that nobody was going hungry?" |
11217 | Would she be ranked out of quarters? |
11217 | Would she ever know? |
11217 | Would she hear from_ her_ again? |
11217 | Would there be things in the paper about her? |
11217 | Would they ever be anything else? |
11217 | Would you call that a very intelligent gang of kids? |
11217 | Would_ they_ be anything else? |
11217 | You care a little something for Katie, do n''t you, Ann?" |
11217 | You do n''t think, do you, that he was trying to get you for his''army girl''--or some such rot? |
11217 | You hear what I say? |
11217 | You know anything about it, Katie?" |
11217 | You say Ann went in the machine?" |
11217 | You see one who had never been in the crowd would say--''Why do n''t you get out?'' |
11217 | You see what I mean? |
11217 | You see? |
11217 | You sent for me?" |
11217 | You were n''t sick at all-- were you, Katie? |
11217 | You''ll come? |
11217 | You''ll come?" |
11217 | You''re of the bound, too, are n''t you? |
11217 | You''re waiting for a car? |
11217 | You''ve demanded nothing?" |
11217 | You-- the devoted daughter you always were-- not able to''help''hurting your mother?" |
11217 | You_ will_ find her-- won''t you?" |
11217 | You_?" |
11217 | _ Does_ it make a difference?" |
11217 | _ How_ did a worm become something that was n''t a worm? |
11217 | _ Need_ it? |
11217 | _ Were_ the big and the little things so close? |
11217 | and why thither? |
11217 | he murmured,"what is it?" |
11217 | she burst forth, no longer able to hold back,"as you stand sometimes at the altar do n''t you hear them moaning and sobbing down underneath?" |
