The Landed Proprietor Monologue from Such is Life: A Play in Five Acts

From Such is Life: A Play in Five Acts by Frank Wedekind

male · philosophical · 46 sec

Ha, ha, ha! He who works in order not to go hungry, he is the right kind of worker for me! First comes work and then the hunger. Let him who can live without work starve rather today than tomorrow! (THE KING: Sir, you must have had wiser teachers than I!) I should hope so! What have you learned? (THE KING: The trade of war.) Thank God, under the rule of King Pietro, whom Heaven long preserve to us, there is little use for that in Umbria any longer. City and country enjoy peace, and at last we live in concord with neighboring states.
