Short Patent Sermons Volume 1 Quotes

“Of the scaly tribe I may mention those suckers belonging to the body loaferish, that ever rise to the surface of respectability, but are always groveling in the mud of corruption, whose sole study appears to be how much they can get without the least physical exertion; and who would rather ride to hell in a hand-cart than walk to heaven supported by the staff of industry.”
― Elbridge Gerry Paige, Short Patent Sermons Volume 1
