    “The faults of the burglar are the qualities of the financier: the manners and habits of a duke would cost a city clerk his situation.”

    “They throw in Drummer Hodge, to rest
    Uncoffined—just as found:
    His landmark is a kopje-crest
    That breaks the veldt around;”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
