10.

Nowadays nothing but money counts: a fortune brings honors, friendships, the poor man everywhere lies low.

Ovid

11.

All things are sold: the very light of heaven is venal; earth's unsparing gifts of love, the smallest and most despicable things that lurk in the abysses of the deep, all objects of our life, even life itself, and the poor pittance which the laws allow of liberty, the fellowship of man, those duties which his heart of human love should urge him to perform instinctively, are bought and sold as in a public mart of not disguising selfishness, that sets on each its price, the stamp-mark of her reign.

Shelley, Percy Bysshe

Get to know two things about a man. How he earns his money and how he spends it. You will then have the clue to his character. You will have a searchlight that shows up the inmost recesses of his soul. You know all you need to know about his standards, his motives, his driving desires, his real religion.

Mccracken, Robert J.

18.

Money is the most important thing in the world. It represents health, strength, honor, generosity, and beauty as conspicuously as the want of it represents illness, weakness, disgrace, meanness, and ugliness.

Shaw, George Bernard

19.

There are people who have money and people who are rich.

Twain, Mark

Martial, Marcus Valerius

26.

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. Money votes socialist or monarchist, finds a profit in pornography or translations from the Bible, commissions Rembrandt and underwrites the technology of Auschwitz. It acquires its meaning from the uses to which it is put.

Lapham, Lewis H.

Billings, Victoria

The poor man's budget is full of schemes.

Proverb

31.

It doesn't matter whether you are rich or poor -- as long as you've got money.

Lewis, Joe E.

32.

The covetous man never has money. The prodigal will have none shortly.

Johnson, Ben

33.

Dollars! All their cares, hopes, joys, affections, virtues, and associations seemed to be melted down into dollars. Whatever the chance contributions that fell into the slow cauldron of their talk, they made the gruel thick and slab with dollars. Men were weighed by their dollars, measures were gauged by their dollars; life was auctioned, appraised, put up, and knocked down for its dollars. The next respectable thing to dollars was any venture having their attainment for its end. The more of that worthless ballast, honor and fair-dealing, which any man cast overboard from the ship of his Good Nature and Good Intent, the more ample stowage-room he had for dollars. Make commerce one huge lie and mighty theft. Deface the banner of the nation for an idle rag; pollute it star by star; and cut out stripe by stripe as from the arm of a degraded soldier. Do anything for dollars! What is a flag to them!

Dickens, Charles

34.

Many people make the mistake of thinking that all the challenges in their lives would dissipate if they just had enough money. Nothing could be further from the truth. Earning more money, in and of itself, rarely frees people. It's equally ridiculous to tell yourself that greater financial freedom and mastery of your finances would not offer your greater opportunities to expand, share, and create value for yourself and others.

Robbins, Anthony

Money is usually attracted, not pursued.

Rohn, Jim

I have imbibed such a love for money that I keep some sequins in a drawer to count, and cry over them once a week.

Byron, Lord

I never attempt to make money on the stock market. I buy on the assumption that they could close the market the next day and not reopen it for five years.

Buffett, Warren

Profits are an opinion, cash is a fact.

God shows his contempt for wealth by the kind of person he selects to receive it.

O'Malley, Austin

Cultivate more joy by arranging your life so that more joy will be likely.

Witkin, Georgia

42.

Many people take no care of their money till they come nearly to the end of it, and others do just the same with their time.

Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
