    Helicon: “It takes one day to make a senator and ten years to make a worker.”
    Caligula: “But I am afraid that it takes twenty years to make a worker out of a senator.”

    The barriers of conventionality have been raised so high, and so strangely cemented by long existence, that the only hope of overthrowing them exists in the union of numbers linked together by common opinion and effort ... the united watchword of thousands would strike at the foundation of the false system and annihilate it.
