I Am A Beau In Nothing But

In Ease Of Body, Peace Of Mind, All The Different Ranks Of Life Are Nearly Upon A Level And The Beggar Who Suns Himself By The Side Of The Highway, Possesses That Security Which Kings Are Fighting For.

Every Man Is Rich Or Poor According To The Degree In Which He Can Afford To Enjoy The Necessaries, Conveniences, And Amusements Of Human Life.

Now Many Such Things May Be Done Without Intitling The People To Rise In Arms. A Gross, Flagrant, And Palpable Abuse No Doubt Will Do It, As If They Should Be Required To Pay A Tax Equal To Half Or Third Of Their Substance.

In General, If Any Branch Of Trade, Or Any Division Of Labour, Be Advantageous To The Public, The Freer And More General The Competition, It Will Always Be The More So.

I Have No Faith In Political Arithmetic.
