Value by David H. C. Read

Posted in

Oscar Wilde said that a cynic was a man who knew the price of everything and the value of nothing.
It is a salutary reflection that the reason why the priest and the Levite did not stop to help the wounded man on the Jericho road was not that they were hard hearted hypocrites but that they had an urgent appointment to attend the Committee for the Relief of Distressed Travellers.
