1 " But I do, and the barbed wire tightens once more, until my heart is strangled and broken. "

2 " An age that needs security guards is, of course, without security. What do we have in the dull old days? Old man janitors in the schools; watchmen in the factories, and the watchman was usually the turbanned bearded Bombay armed only with a stick, drowsing on a stool by a gate. How his strong odor remembered now seems the very smell of safety!In his place now lurks the man in uniform, armed with pistol and club and submachine gun: the " security" that stands for the insecurity of our times, being the human equivalent of the iron bars at the window, the barbed wire on the wall.
