Guilty Men Preface by Frank Owen and Peter Howard Lyrics
On a spring day in 1793 a crowd of angry men burst their way through three doors of the assembly room where the French Convention was in session. A discomforted figure addressed them from the rostrum. “What do the people desire?” he asked. “The Convention has only their welfare at heart.” The leader of the angry crowd replied. “The people haven’t come here to be given a lot of phrases. They demand a dozen guilty men.”
“The use of recriminating about the past is to enforce effective action at the present.”
