Best Quotes about Money

The world is his who has money to go over it.

Emerson, Ralph Waldo

Money is like fire, an element as little troubled by moralizing as earth, air and water. Men can employ it as a tool or they can dance around it as if it were the incarnation of a god.

It acquires its meaning from the uses to which it is put.
