 But he says, ‘Why is it unjust if I diligently look after my own things as long as I do not seize other people’s? O impudent words! … No one should say ‘my own’ of what is common; if more than what suffices is taken, it is obtained with violence. Who is as unjust and as avaricious, as he who makes the food [alimenta] of the multitude not for his own use, but for his abundance and luxuries? The bread which you hold back belongs to the needy. (D. 47 c. 8; Tierney 1959: 34)
