"It is a matter of course and of absolute necessity to the conduct of business, that any discretionary businessman must be free to deal or not to deal in any given case; to limit or withhold the equipment under his control, without reservation.

So that, in effect, all business sagacity reduces itself in the last analysis to judicious use of sabotage."
