Well, whiles I am a beggar, I will rail, And say there is no sin, but to be rich And, being rich, my virtue then shall be, To say there is no vice, but beggary. (William Shakespeare)

Well, whiles I am a beggar, I will rail, And say there is no sin, but to be rich And, being rich, my virtue then shall be, To say there is no vice, but beggary.

William Shakespeare
