“The truth is that most people fear and dislike money. They’re relieved not to be stuck with it, the responsibility, the need to consume, invest, recycle. It’s dirty, it’s ugly. It’s covered with engravings of people who you wouldn’t want in your house. Dead people. Royals who are the experts in the silent acquisition of all of the loose change in the universe. They’re born to it. It doesn’t embarrass them. They’re not fazed by creeping Masonic symbolism. If there is a conspiracy, they’re in it. The stuff is like a family album.”
— Iain Sinclair, Lights Out for the Territory
