Money is a needful and precious thing,—and, when well used, a noble thing,—but I never want you to think it is the first or only prize to strive for. I’d rather see you poor men’s wives, if you were happy, beloved, contented, than queens on thrones, without self- respect and peace.
-Louisa May Alcott, Little Women
It is said that for money you can have everything, but you cannot. You can buy food, but not appetite; medicine, but not health; knowledge but not wisdom; glitter, but not beauty; fun, but not joy; acquaintances, but not friends; servants, but not faithfulness; leisure, but not peace. You can have the husk of everything for money, but not the kernel.
-Arne Garborg
"Money is like manure. You have to spread it around or it smells."
J. Paul Getty
The money you have gives you freedom; the money you pursue enslaves you.
-Jean Jacques Rousseau
