    Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.
    Bible: Hebrew Exodus, 20:17.

    The tenth commandment.

    Is money money or isn’t money money. Everybody who earns
    it and spends it every day in order to live knows
    that money is money, anybody who votes it to be
    gathered in as taxes knows money is not money. That
    is what makes everybody go crazy.... When you earn
    money and spend money every day anybody can know the
    difference between a million and three. But when you
    vote money away there really is not any difference
    between a million and three.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
