Damien: The Treaty does not express the will of the people, but the fear of the people.

This is not the will of the people. It is the fear of the people. How dare you talk to me in the house of God! Silence! Damien O'Donovan, you're a disgrace to the memory of your parents! Yes! Get out! The Free State constitution was only printed the morning of the election, - so nobody had time to read it! - Young lady, this is not the marketplace! Sit down, shut up, or get out of my church!
