Hay I do have a favourite, & it just came to mind.

It comes from Michener's Hawaii, talking about the missionaries who went to Hawaii from the US, to convert the heathen.

They are talking about the land holdings in the islands & say, "The missionaries came to do good, & did very very well" [for them selves of course].

Somehow it always pops into my mind, when ever the topic turns to welfare NGOs.
