He intends only his own gain,

and he is in this,

as in many other cases,

led by an invisible hand to promote an end

which was no part of his intention.

Nor is it always the worse for the society that it was not part of it.

By preferring the support of domestic to that of foreign industry,

he intends only his own security;

and by directing that industry

in such a manner as its produce may be of the greatest value,

he intends only his own gain,

and he is in this, as in many other cases,

led by an invisible hand to promote an end

which was no part of his intention.

Nor is it always the worse for the society that it was not part of it.

By pursuing his own interest

he frequently promotes that of the society

more effectually than when he really intends to promote it.
