Waverley Root Quotes

In Medieval Times The Habit Arose Of Expressing A Man's Wealth, No Longer In Terms Of The Amount Of Land In His Estate, But Of The Amount Of Pepper In His Pantry. One Way Of Saying That A Man Was Poor Was To Say That He Lacked Pepper. The Wealthy Lacked Pepper. The Wealthy Kept Large Stores Of Pepper In Their Houses, And Let It Be Known That It Was There: It Was A Guarantee Of Solvency.
