"It is not the benevolence of the butcher, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard
to their own interest. We address ourselves, not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities but of their
advantages." | by: | Adam Smith
(1723-1790) Scottish philosopher and economist |
