Money is the fruit of evil, as often as the root of it.

Henry Fielding

O innocence, how glorious and happy a portion art thou to the breast that possesses thee! thou fearest neither the eyes nor the tongues of men. Truth, the most powerful of all things, is thy strongest friend; and the brighter the light is in which thou art displayed, the more it discovers thy transcendent beauties.

Thus they become bad subjects, bad relations, bad friends, and bad men.
