Jeffrey’s Quotes

“Well then, what about the businessman* who is good at making money, but so keen to make a lot of it that he drives a hard bargain, and is happy enough to rake the money in but reluctant to pay any out?’ ‘In my view,’ he said, ‘this one is even worse than the last.”
― Xenophon, Memories of Socrates: Memorabilia and Apology
