“Thrice happy you! who are not driven to such Apician luxuries,—Apician at least in point of expense, if not of so palatable a quality.”

“If dishonesty can live in a gorgeous place with pictures on all its walls, and gems in all its cupboards, with marble and ivory in all its corners, and can give Apician dinners, and get into Parliament, and deal in millions, then dishonesty is not disgraceful, and the man dishonest after such a fashion is not a low scoundrel.”
