Take a king or a president or anybody. Put a heavy sack of gold in one hand and a feather-light declaration about freedom in the other. And then an outlaw sticks a pistol in his face and says give me one or the other. Every time-every ten out of ten -he'll hug the sack and throw away the ideals. Because the sack's what's behind the ideals, like the foundation under a building."
