“Soun is noght but air ybroken,
And every speche that is spoken,

—Thomas Brackett Reed (1839–1902)
“At the crash of economic collapse of which the rumblings can already be heard, the sleeping soldiers of the proletariat will awake as at the fanfare of the Last Judgment and the corpses of the victims of the struggle will arise and demand an accounting from those who are loaded down with curses.”
