'"Go to sleep; I will sit up and work, so that you may be rich some day!"
"Ah! am I not rich enough already?" thought Emile as he left the room. "If, as my father has often and justly told me, wealth imposes vast duties, why waste our lives creating for ourselves those duties which may exceed our strength?"
from The Sin of Monsieur Antoine by George Sand (Chapter VII)
