Excerpt from The Romance of Commerce

The man possessing many lands, he especially would be a merchant in fact, and sell, but his is a merchandise which too often nowadays waits in vain for the buyer. The preacher, the lecturer, the actor, the estate agent, the farmer, the employé, all, all are merchants, all have something to dispose Of at a profit to themselves, and the dignity of the business is decided by the manner in which they conduct the sale.

Reseña del editor

Excerpt from The Romance of Commerce

"Five great intellectual professions have hitherto existed in every civilized nation:

The Soldiers to defend it.
The Merchants to provide for it.
The Pastors to teach it.
The Physicians to keep it in health.
The Lawyers to enforce justice in it.

And the duty of all of these is, on due occasion, to die for it."

John Ruskin
