“If dishonesty can live in a gorgeous palace, can get into Parliament and deal in millions, then there seems to be reason for fearing that men and women will be taught to feel that dishonesty, if it can become splendid, will cease to be abominable, that the dishonest after such a fashion are not just low scoundrels.”

Anthony Trollope 1815 – 1882 CE
Novelist as teacher

from The Way We Live Now, 1875
