Nothing has more strength than dire necessity.
This is what it means to be a slave; to be abused and bear it; compelled by violence to suffer wrong.
Men honor property above all else; it has the greatest power in human life.
Prosperity is full of friends.
The day is for honest men, the night for thieves.
No one is truly free, they are a slave to wealth, fortune, the law, or other people restraining them from acting according to their will.
