    There is a destiny that makes us brothers;

    Comes back into our own.

    We call it a Society; and go about professing openly the totalest separation, isolation. Our life is not a mutual helpfulness; but rather, cloaked under due laws-of-war, named “fair competition” and so forth, it is a mutual hostility.

    The grip that swung the ax in Illinois
    Was on the pen that set a people free.
