David Graeber
“The criminalization of debt, then, was the criminalization of the very basis of human society. It cannot be overemphasized that in a small community, everyone normally was both a lender and borrower. One can only imagine the tensions and temptations that must have existed in a community—and communities, much though they are based on love, in fact because they are based on love, will always also be full of hatred, rivalry and passion—when it became clear that with sufficiently clever scheming, manipulation, and perhaps a bit of strategic bribery, they could arrange to have almost anyone they hated imprisoned or even hanged.”
― David Graeber, Debt: The First 5,000 Years

Solomon Northup
“No credit--no debt. Credit leads a man into temptation. Cash down is the only thing that will deliver him from evil.”
― Solomon Northrup
