    ... men and women are not yet free.... The slavery of greed endures. Little child workers, the hope of the future, are sacrificed to industry.

    Seyton. The Queen, my lord, is dead.
    Macbeth. She should have died hereafter;
    There would have been a time for such a word.—
    Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
    Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
    To the last syllable of recorded time;
    And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
    The way to dusty death.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
