Wyoh plowed doggedly into Prof, certain she had all answers. But Prof was interested in questions rather than answers, which baffled her. Finally she said, Professor, I cant understand you. I dont insist that you call it governmentI just want you to state what rules you think are necessary to insure equal freedom for all. Dear lady, Ill happily accept your rules. But you dont seem to want any rules! True. But I will accept any rules that you feel necessary to your freedom. I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do. You would not abide by a law that the majority felt was necessary? Tell me what law, dear lady, and I will tell you whether I will obey it. You wiggled out. Every time I state a general principle, you wiggle out. Prof clasped hands on chest. Forgive me. Believe me, lovely Wyoming, I am most anxious to please you. You spoke of willingness to unite the front with anyone going your way. Is it enough that I want to see the Authority thrown off Luna and would die to serve that end? Wyoh beamed. It certainly is! She fisted his ribsgentlythen put arm around him and kissed cheek. Comrade! Lets get on with it! Cheers! I said. Lets fin Warden n liminate him! Seemed a good idea; I had had a short night and dont usually drink much. Prof topped our glasses, held his high and announced with great dignity: Comrades. . . we declare the Revolution!
