Revolution! The people howls and cries, Freedom, that's what we're needing! We've needed it for centuries, our arteries are bleeding. The stage is shaking, the audience rock. The whole thing is over by nine o'clock.

Summary

This quote captures the collective yearning for revolution and freedom. The people are depicted as howling and crying, expressing their desperate need for change that has been brewing for centuries. The imagery of arteries bleeding signifies the deep wounds inflicted by oppressive systems. The stage shaking and the audience rocking symbolize the intense energy and enthusiasm for revolution. However, the brevity of the whole affair ending by nine o'clock suggests either the quick suppression of the revolution or the transient nature of revolutionary movements.
