Money is a social convention, an agreement if you will. It is neither a natural resource nor does it represent one. It is not necessary for survival unless we have been conditioned to accept it as such  (Social Convention Quotes) As the eye becomes blinded by fashion to positive deformity, so, through social conventionalism, the conscience becomes blinded to positive immorality  (Social Convention Quotes) The most curious social convention of the great age in which we live is the one to the effect that religious opinions should be respected  (Social Convention Quotes)
