Alexander MacLaren Quotes

The First Plague-spot Is The Accumulation Of Wealth In Few Hands, And The Selfish Withdrawal Of Its Possessors From The Life Of The Community. In An Agricultural Society Like That Of Judah, That Clotting Of Wealth Took The Shape Of 'land-grabbing,' And Of Evicting The Small Proprietors. We See It In More Virulent Forms In Our Great Commercial Centres, Where The Big Men Often Become Big By Crushing Out The Little Ones, And Denude Themselves Of Responsibility To The Community In Proportion As They Clothe Themselves With Wealth. Wherever Wealth Is Thus Congested, And Its Obligations Ignored By Selfish Indulgence, The Seeds Are Sown Which Will Spring Up One Day In 'anarchism.' A Man Need Not Be A Prophet To Have It Whispered In His Ear, As Isaiah Had, That The End Of Selfish Capitalism Is A Convulsion In Which 'many Houses Shall Be Desolate,' And Many Fields Barren.
