Loc. 6094
I feel the devil in the air, and he’ll try to get us. Or not
the devil, Mammon: which I think, after all, is only the mass-will of people,
wanting money and hating life. Anyhow I feel great grasping white hands in the
air, wanting to get hold of the throat of anybody who tries to live, to live
beyond money, and squeeze the life out. There’s a bad time coming. There’s a
bad time coming, boys, there’s a bad time coming! If things go on as they are,
there’s nothing lies in the future but death and destruction, for these
industrial masses."
