“I have long been of the opinion that most of the troubles in this world are due not to the ordinary causes and disputes such as I< have to try, but to the vice common to, all' selfishness,” said Mr Justice Blair in an address to members of the New Plymouth Rotary Club. “More trouble is caused by’selfishness than by any other vice,” said his Honour. “The whole of k our criminal law is designed to punish those guilty of selfishness.” This varied in degree from mere thoughtlessness to the higher grades of greed and rapacity. All people were more or less tarred with the brush of selfishnessj, which was the genesis of many of the troubles in the world.
