One and all, then, we are responsible for the enunciation of Socialist principles and of the consequences which may flow from their general acceptance, whatever that may be. ONE AND ALL THEN WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ENUNCIATION OF SOCIALIST PRINCIPLES AND OF THE CONSEQUENCES WHICH MAY FLOW FROM THEIR GENERAL ACCEPTANCE WHATEVER THAT MAY BE
ranny which the world has yet seen, the tyranny of so-called Constitutionalism. How, then, are the people’s eyes to be opened? By the force evolved from the final triumph and consequent corruption of Commercial Whiggery, which force will include in it a recognition of its constructive activity by intelligent people on the one hand, and on the other half-blind instinctive struggles to use its destructive activity on the part of those who suffer and have not been allowed to think; and, to boot, a great deal that goes between those two extremes. In this turmoil, all those who can be truly called Socialists will be involved. The modern development of the great class-struggle has forced us to think, our thoughts force us to speak, and our hopes force us to try to get a hearing from the people. Nor can one tell how far our words will carry, so to say. The most moderate exposition of our principles will bear with it the seeds of disruption; nor can we tell what form that disruption will take.  AND MOST SORDID TYRANNY WHICH THE WORLD HAS YET SEEN THE TYRANNY OF SO CALLED CONSTITUTIONALISM HOW THEN ARE THE PEOPLE'S EYES TO BE OPENED BY THE FORCE EVOLVED FROM THE FINAL TRIUMPH AND CONSEQUENT CORRUPTION OF COMMERCIAL WICKERY WHICH FORCE WILL INCLUDE IN IT A RECOGNITION OF ITS CONSTRUCTIVE ACTIVITY BY INTELLIGENT PEOPLE ON THE ONE HAND AND ON THE OTHER HALF BLIND INSTINCTIVE STRUGGLES TO USE ITS DESTRUCTIVE ACTIVITY ON THE PART OF THOSE WHO SUFFER AND HAVE NOT BEEN ALLOWED TO THINK AND TO BOOT A GREAT DEAL THAT GOES BETWEEN THOSE TWO EXTREMES IN THIS TURMOIL ALL THOSE WHO CAN BE TRULY CALLED SOCIALISTS WILL BE INVOLVED THE MODERN DEVELOPMENT OF THE GREAT CLASS STRUGGLE HAS FORCED US TO THINK OUR THOUGHTS FORCE US TO SPEAK AND OUR HOPES FORCE US TO TRY TO GET A HEARING FROM THE PEOPLE NOR CAN ONE TELL HOW FAR OUR WORDS WILL CARRY SO TO SAY THE MOST MODERATE EXPOSITION OF OUR PRINCIPLES WILL BEAR WITH IT THE SEEDS OF DESTRUCTION NOR CAN WE TELL WHAT FORM THAT DESTRUCTION WILL TAKE
