Famous quotes containing the words bank and/or robberies:

    “A man’s labour is not only his capital but his life. When it passes it returns never more. To utilise it, to prevent its wasteful squandering, to enable the poor man to bank it up for use hereafter, this surely is one of the most urgent tasks before civilisation.”
    —William Booth (1829–1912)

    “True, we’re not great thieves, like the nobles. Our robberies are petty compared to the wholesale plunder of the nation.”
    —Sonya Levien (1895–1960)
