Grimes Monologue from The Machine

From The Machine by Upton Sinclair

male · defiant · 1:15 min

Yes, we all get tired now and then. But this afternoon it'll be Murdock that's tired. Think of him, Hegan... try to realize him a bit! You've got him where you want him at last! Remember what he did to you in the Brooklyn Ferry case! Remember how he lied to you in the Third Avenue case! And he told Isaacson, only last week, that he'd never let up on you till he'd driven you out of the traction field! (HEGAN: Did he say that?) He did that! And only yesterday he said he was getting ready to finish you! He's as sure of this Court decision as I am of the sunrise! I'm told he's short already over a quarter of a million shares! (HEGAN: But his judges'll get word to him... he'll buy!) Of course! But that's just why you ought to be busy! Buy first, and make him pay... damn his soul!
