Scienta Est Potentia III
Would you rather be cheap or be free?
If you want to be cheap, I have nothing to say
But what if you want to be free?
Does't being free mean you're of less value than if you were cheap?
Hmm...
A simple gateway to a complex mind. Displayed here are the thoughts and rantings of the demi-Mortal known as Eddie G. (mostly rantings though because many believe that the mortal known as Eddie G. can't really think, even though he vehemently contests that...) - thoughts and rantings on Life, the Universe and Everything.
Ye who seek for audience, let ye speak now!
"Does't being free mean you're of less value than if you were cheap?"
A prostitute charges for her services, but a wife gives it to her husband free of charge. Economically, the prostitute is worth more.
On the flip side, everyone we deem precious is ultimately cheap.
"You're cheap, dear,
Cheap at any price dear,
Cheap for such a diamond,
Cheap for such a pearl."
-You're Awful, On the Town
It's hard to slap a price tag on anyone when everyone is priceless.
