They never said I shouldn't use their microwave
To dry off my cat!”

Golden bells!
What a world of happiness their harmony foretells
Through the balmy air of night

“What does anti-Semitism have to do with socialism? I would put the question this way: What does the Jew have to do with socialism? Socialism has to do with labor. When did one ever see him working instead of plundering, stealing and living from the sweat of others? As socialists we are opponents of the Jews because we see in the Hebrews the incarnation of capitalism.”
