You must drop all your democracy. You must not believe in ''the people.'' One class is no better than another. It must be a case of Wisdom, or Truth. Let the working classes be working classes.

We are one human race, and there must be understanding among all men. For those who look at the problems of today, my big hope is that they understand.
