Opulence is always the result of theft, if not committed by the actual possessor, then by his predecessor. The Cry for Justice (1915)
They fill their houses through the plunder and losses of others, so that the saying of the philosophers may be fulfilled, 'Every rich man is unjust or the heir of an unjust one.' (Omnis dives aut iniquis aut iniqui haeres.)
The rich abound not so much in wealth as in injustice; for all riches being a spoliation of others are born of injustice.
