"and the love of money, which is not dying at all, but in the opinion of many business men is growing stronger every day."

"O men with sisters dear, O men with mothers and wives, It is not linen you're wearing out, But human creatures' lives. O God, that bread should be so dear, And flesh and blood so cheap."

"Shakespeare says: "You take my life when you do take the means by which I live/'"

"What does the palace know about the shovel?"

"They learn too late that the politician loved the fleece more than the flock. Or, as Mr. Spurgeon puts it, "It is simply a question of which set of maggots shall have the cheese. "
