Show Rose (1/25 / 83 ) page 48 Mr. K Mr. R Mr. K Mr. R Mr. K Mr. R him about it since, but I mean, in it's formitive years. Eut, I'll tell you why we wouldn't go up into the hills; we said that hypo-thetically we established a commander , and we gave him the decision to decide when we were to assemble. That's where we fell apart. No two people could agree on the point ~~where they would give up their money, where they would walk away from their money. The point at which I was prepared to walk away from my property rather than have it taken away from me at a later date •• the ~oint at which I would say "it's time for me to do something about it. If I'm going to die, I'm not going to die alone •• I'm going to take a son-of-a-bitch with me". Do you follow me? At what point was I willing to walk away from my money so I could go commit myself to that other purpose? And it wasn't the dying, it was the walking away from my money. And I ~ean by MY,I mean me collectively. Eve body had a different ulace at which he would walk away from his money, so that moment of assembly could never arrive and that's where the whole scheming and planning stopped, and it's a hell of a good thing that it didn't happen here. That nuts it in a nutshell, doesn't it? Yeah, it puts it in a nutshell, but that's where it broke up. Whe can I walk away from my money? That's exactly what happened to my family. A portion of my family escaped because they walked away more quickly than the others. Now, what impelled them to move away? Was it that they thought of their money, or they thought more of their lives? Right, they felt the danger more powerfully. That's it, but it's like you say, part went and part didn't. |
