“"Mi demandis," mi diris, "ĉar ne ŝajnas al mi ke vi tre alte taksas monon. Tiaj estas homoj kiuj ne perlaboris ĝin. La perlaborintoj amas ĝin duoble pli ol la aliaj. Same kiel poetoj amas siajn poemojn kaj patroj siajn infanojn, tiel la perlaborintoj amas riĉon ĉar ili kreis ĝin."”

"I asked," I said, "because it doesn't seem to me that you value money very highly. Such are people who do not earn it. The earners love it twice more than the others. In the same way poets love their poems and fathers their children, the earners love wealth in that way, because they created it."
