“The point is, ladies and gentleman, that greed— for lack of a better word— is good. Greed is right. Greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms— greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge— has marked the upward surge of mankind. And greed— you mark my words— will save that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA.”
Gordon Gekko, Wall Street, 1987
