A Dose of Dorothy Sayers

"A society in which consumption must be artificially stimulated in order to keep production going is a society founded on trash and waste, and such a society is a house built upon sand."

Dorothy Sayers
Source: Creed or Chaos, Sophia Press, 1949, 1974, pg. 64
(you can find more quoatations on wealth and poverty here)

Regardless of how extreme one may consider Sayers' view in this quotation, it should at least make him consider how his light is spent.
