[to Become A Poet] The Most Important

If You're Creating A Slave Situation, You Would Almost Never Bring Women. And If We Look At Slavery For Example, We Look At The Greeks And The Romans, Right? It Was Always Men. They Never Brought Any Women. Because Women Carry The Seeds Of The Revolution, Right? And If You Have The Men By Themselves, Then You Can Do What The French Did With The Blackfeet, Which Is Breed Them Out.
