You can tell what people
want by the leaders they choose, do you see? You choose leaders
whom I respect, and I'll respect you, do you see? As it is, I don't.
And now I'm going.
VOICES. Who says?--Oh ay!--Who says goin'?
GERALD. Yes, I'm going. About this affair here we'll cry quits; no
more said about it. About a new way of life, a better way all round--
I tell you I want it and need it as much as ever you do. I don't care
about money really. But I'm never going to be bullied.
VOICE. Who doesn't care about money?
GERALD. I don't. I think we ought to be able to alter the whole
system--but not by bullying, not because one lot wants what the other
has got.
VOICE. No, because you've got everything.
GERALD. Where's my coat? Now then, step out of the way. (They move
towards the car.)
(Curtain.)
