‘‘What keeps mankind alive?
What keeps mankind alive's the millions yearly that we mistreat and cheat; the beaten, burned and barbecued.
Mankind may just survive if it sincerely keeps every decent human urge subdued.
Try not to trim the truth to suit your needs: mankind is kept alive...
...BY MONSTROUS DEEDS!’’
