About This Quote

There is nothing morally wrong with buying stolen goods, unless you know that they were stolen. This quote has an interesting history and shows the evolution of norms in society. In the past, it was acceptable to buy stolen goods because they did not have a brand name and were therefore cheap and highly cost-effective. However, once people realized that the goods did not come from a legitimate source, they began to feel guilty about purchasing them.

This quote is often used in situations where people are under duress and do not know what to do. If someone was caught in such a situation, this quote would be useful because it would give them some perspective on their situation and allow them to make a decision that will lead them out of the difficult position they find themselves in.
