Fyodor Dostoevsky Quotes
Money is coined liberty, and so it is ten times dearer to the man who is deprived of freedom. If money is jingling in his pocket, he is half consoled, even though he cannot spend it. But money can always and everywhere be spent, and, moreover, forbidden fruit is sweetest of all.

It suggests a callousness, an inhumanity, a let's-just-rub-their-noses-in-it arrogance.
