[exasperated]

Then first let them learn to obey the law. Harry Bailey:
First let them ask if your laws are just. Vandenburg:
Do you think people should be allowed to decide for themselves whether a law is just? Why, that's anarchy! This nation was founded on law and order. Harry Bailey:
[screaming]
*Bull shit*! This nation was born out of *disorder* and founded on freedom and the will of the people! Vandenburg:
People... need guidance, Harry. Give them what they want today, and what'll they ask for next, tomorrow? Harry Bailey:
[taking a deep breath mid-thought, yelling afterward]
I don't know. Maybe a 40-hr week? Maybe the vote for women? What difference does it make? Will you let go? *Let go*! Stop trying to hold back the hands of the clock! *It'll tear your arms out*!
