Stran 137 - Thou hast said much here of Paradise Lost, but what hast thou to say of Paradise Found?
Stran 112 - The social problem of the future we considered to be, how to unite the greatest individual liberty of action, with a common ownership in the raw material of the globe, and an equal participation of all in the benefits of combined labour.
