“I had always heard the merchants say that truth was not possible in business. I did not think so then, nor do I now.

Business, they say, is a very practical affair, and truth a matter of religion; and they argue that practical affairs are one thing, while religion is quite another. Pure truth, they hold, is out of the question in business; one can speak it only as far as is suitable.”
