"Consumption is the sole end and purpose of all production; and the interest of the producer ought to be attended to, only so far as it may be necessary for promoting that of the consumer."
"The landlords, like all other men, love to reap where they never sowed, and demand a rent even for nature’s production."
"People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices."
"The wages of labour are the encouragement of industry, which, like every other human quality, improves in proportion to the encouragement it receives."
