Now you have to be careful here... 'From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs' only works in a perfect world, and does not necessarily represent reality, with greed, ego, and fear are the driving motivational forces...

As a counter-part, there is always the famous 'Greed is Good' speech from the Hollywood movie 'Wall Street'...
