157 ページ - I am for doing good to the poor, but I differ in opinion about the means. I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is, not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it.

158 ページ - I affirm that there is no country in the world in which the poor are more idle, dissolute, drunken, and insolent.

71 ページ - They are advantageous even to that part of the country. Though they introduce some rival commodities into the old market, they open many new markets to its produce.
158 ページ - Six days shall thou labour, though one of the old commandments long treated as out of date, will again be looked upon as a respectable precept; industry will increase, and with it plenty among the lower people; their circumstances will mend, and more will be done for their happiness by inuring them to provide for themselves, than could be done by dividing all your estates among them.
