If we are pulling quotes out of a hat, why not some OG one?

“He who oppresses the poor taunts and insults his Maker, But he who is kind and merciful and gracious to the needy honors Him.” Proverbs 14:31

"Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's..."
That's one of my favorite verses, specifically because it leaves determining what is in fact Caesar's as an exercise for the reader.
