Bertolt Brecht, Martin Chalmers (2001). “Stories of Mr. Keuner”, p.73, City Lights Books

A man who sees another man on the street corner with only a stump for an arm will be so shocked the first time he'll give him sixpence. But the second time it'll only be a three penny bit. And if he sees him a third time, he'll have him cold-bloodedly handed over to the police.
