The Shadow of the Cathedral

CHAPTER X
44/52

Why do you hate the rich, if what they do in sweating the poor is just the same as what you are doing in taking possession of a thing for yourselves--understand me well--for yourselves--and not for all.

The robbery does not scare me, for I do not believe in ownership nor in the sanctity of things, but for this very reason I detest this appropriation to yourselves and I oppose it.

Why do you wish to possess all this?
You say it is to remedy your poverty.

That is not true.

It is to be rich, to enter into the privileged group, to be three individual men of that detested minority which desires to enjoy prosperity by enslaving humanity.
