"I don't make anything of them." "Do you think they'll make a stand against the government ?" "What for ?" "Nationalisation." "They might, one day." "Think they'd fight ?" "Fight ?" "Yes." Aaron sat laughing.
"What have they to fight for ?" "Why, everything! What haven't they to fight for ?" cried Josephine fiercely.

"Freedom, liberty, and escape from this vile system.

Won't they fight for that ?" Aaron sat smiling, slowly shaking his head.
"Nay," he said, "you mustn't ask me what they'll do--I've only just left them, for good.

They'll do a lot of cavilling." "But won't they ACT ?" cried Josephine.
"Act ?" said Aaron.

"How, act ?" "Why, defy the government, and take things in their own hands," said Josephine.
"They might, some time," said Aaron, rather indifferent.
"I wish they would!" cried Josephine.
