Famous quotes containing the word goods:
“Undoubtedly equality of goods is just; but, being unable to cause might to obey justice, men has made it just to obey might. Unable to strengthen justice, they have justified might—so that the just and the strong should unite, and there should be peace, which is the sovereign good.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
“What is a man if he is not a thief who openly charges as much as he can for the goods he sells?”
—Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869–1948)
“The goods of fortune ... were never intended to be talked out of the world.—But as virtue and true wisdom lie in the middle of extremes,—on one hand, not to neglect and despise riches, so as to forget ourselves,—and on the other, not to pursue and love them so, as to forget God;Mto have them sometimes in our heads,—but always something more important in our hearts.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
