"Castles in the air - they are so easy to take refuge in. And so easy to build too." — Henrik Ibsen

Do you know what we are those of us who count as pillars of society? We are society's tools, neither more nor less.

Your home is regarded as a model home, your life as a model life. But all this splendor, and you along with it... it's just as though it were built upon a shifting quagmire. A moment may come, a word can be spoken, and both you and all this splendor will collapse.

Don't use that foreign word 'ideals.' We have that excellent native word 'lies.'

What business has science and capitalism got, bringing all these new inventions into the works, before society has produced a generation educated up to using them!
