But weapons imply warfare,--don't they? (RENCH: We wouldn't fight with you.) Yes, you would,--if our interests conflicted. When I was in the trenches I kept thinking of the quotation Lincoln used, "A house divided against itself cannot stand." We're going to try to perpetuate that house, just as he did. (HILLMAN: Lincoln had common sense.) Another name for intelligence. And what we've got to decide is whether the old house will do--for democracy--industrial democracy? Can we shore up the timbers--or shall we have to begin to build a new house? RENCH (glancing at HILLMAN). The old one sure enough looks rotten to me. I've said that all along.
