“For you, o broker, there is no other principle but arithmetic. For me, commerce is of trivial import; love, faith, truth of character, the aspiration of man, these are sacred; nor can I detach one duty, like you, from all other duties, and concentrate my forces mechanically on the payment of moneys.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Natural selection, as it has operated in human history, favors not only the clever but the murderous.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
