Quote by Terry Pratchett
NAUGHTY AND NICE? said Death. BUT IT'S EASY TO BE NICE IF YOU'RE RICH. IS THIS FAIR?Albert wanted to argue. He wanted to say, Really? In that case, how come so many of the rich buggers is bastards? And being poor don't mean being naughty, neither.
Summary
This quote challenges the notion that being wealthy automatically makes someone kind or good, while implying that those who are poor are more likely to be "naughty" or not as virtuous. The speaker, Death, questions the fairness of this assumption. Albert, who is presumably the recipient of Death's statement, wants to argue against it, highlighting that there are wealthy individuals who are not morally upright, and being poor does not necessarily equate to being immoral or naughty. The quote prompts us to question the stereotypes and biases associated with wealth and poverty.
