A man who gets a million wants another million. If he gets ten
millions then he wants to be as rich as Rockefeller. And then
he wants the whole world fenced in and fixt up for him. What
if a man is as rich as Rockefeller? What is that compared with
the State of New York? And suppose a man owned the whole State
of New York, what is that compared with the balance of America?
And suppose one man owned the whole United States, what is that
compared with the balance of the world? And suppose a man owned
this whole world? Why, you could put two such worlds in your
pocket, and go out to the dog star and stay all night, and you
wouldn’t have enough to pay your hotel bill. This whole thing is
comparative.--“Popular Lectures of Sam P. Jones.”
