Undershaft Monologue from Major Barbara

From Major Barbara by Bernard Shaw

male · philosophical · 38 sec

No. CUSINS (declaiming) One and another In money and guns may outpass his brother; And men in their millions float and flow And seethe with a million hopes as leaven; And they win their will; or they miss their will; And their hopes are dead or are pined for still: But whoe'er can know As the long days go That to live is happy, has found his heaven. My translation: what do you think of it?
