    Après nous le déluge.
    [”After us, the flood.”]
    Madame De Pompadour (1721–1764)

    In great cities men are brought together by the desire of gain. They are not in a state of co-operation, but of isolation, as to the making of fortunes; and for all the rest they are careless of neighbours. Christianity teaches us to love our neighbour as ourself; modern society acknowledges no neighbour.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
