Riches Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Riches

1.
Riches are a good hand maiden, but a poor mistress.
Bacon, Francis

2.
He who is contented is rich.
Lao-Tzu

3.
The rich aren't like us; they pay less taxes.
Vries, Peter De

4.
For a person to build a rich and rewarding life for himself, there are certain qualities and bits of knowledge that he needs to acquire. There are also things, harmful attitudes, superstitions, and emotions that he needs to chip away. A person needs to chip away everything that doesn't look like the person he or she most wants to become.
Nightingale, Earl

5.
Among all the emotions, the rich have the least talent for love. It is possible to love one's dog, dress or duck-shooting hat, but a human being presents a more difficult problem. The rich might wish to experience feelings of affection, but it is almost impossible to chip away the enamel of their narcissism. They take up all the space in all the mirrors in the house. Their children, who represent the most present and therefore the most annoying claim on their attention, usually receive the brunt of their irritation.
Lapham, Lewis H.

6.
No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia

7.
O, what a world of vile ill-favored faults, looks handsome in three hundred pounds a year!
Shakespeare, William

8.
Real riches are the riches possessed inside.
Forbes, B. C.

9.
Let me tell you about the very rich. They are different from you and me. They possess and enjoy early, and it does something to them, makes them soft where we are hard, and cynical where we are trustful, in a way that, unless you were born rich, it is very difficult to understand. They think, deep in their hearts, that they are better than we are because we had to discover the compensations and refuges of life for ourselves. Even when they enter deep into our world or sink below us, they still think that they are better than we are. They are different.
Fitzgerald, F. Scott

10.
I don't mind their having a lot of money, and I don't care how they employ it, but I do think that they damn well ought to admit they enjoy it.
Nash, Ogden

11.
Her voice is full of money.
Fitzgerald, F. Scott

12.
In a rich man's house there is no place to spit but his face.
Diogenes of Sinope

13.
Nothing more clearly shows how little God esteems his gift to men of wealth, money, position and other worldly goods, than the way he distributes these, and the sort of men who are most amply provided with them.
Bruyere, Jean De La

14.
To value riches is not to be covetous. They are the gift of God, and, like every gift of his, good in themselves, and capable of a good use. But to overvalue riches, to give them a place in the heart which God did not design them to fill, this is covetous
Wayland, H. L.

15.
He who multiplies riches, multiplies cares.
Franklin, Benjamin

16.
Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being wanted, for having someone to call their own.
Mother Teresa

17.
Of rich men it telleth, and strange is the story how they have, and they hanker, and grip far and wide; And they live and they die, and the earth and its glory has been but a burden they scarce might abide.
Morris, William

18.
A certain kind of rich man afflicted with the symptoms of moral dandyism sooner or later comes to the conclusion that it isn't enough merely to make money. He feels obliged to hold views, to espouse causes and elect Presidents, to explain to a trembling world how and why the world went wrong. The spectacle is nearly always comic.
Lapham, Lewis H.

19.
Of all classes the rich are the most noticed and the least studied.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

20.
Being rich is having money; being wealthy is having time.
Swid, Stephen

21.
Think and grow rich.
Hill, Napoleon

22.
If you want to feel rich, just count all of the things you have that money can't buy.

23.
He must have killed a lot of men to have made so much money.
Moliere

24.
The rich swell up with pride, the poor from hunger.
Aleichem, Sholom

25.
Among the very rich you will never find a really generous man, even by accident. They may give their money away, but they will never give themselves away; they are egoistic, secretive, dry as old bones. To be smart enough to get all that money you must be dull enough to want it.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

26.
A sumptuous dwelling the rich man hath. And dainty is his repast; but remember that luxury's prodigal hand keeps the furnace of toil in blast.
Hewitt, Mary Elizabeth

27.
He who knows he has enough is rich.
Lao-Tzu

28.
About the only difference between the poor and the rich, is this, the poor suffer misery, while the rich have to enjoy it.
Shaw, Henry Wheeler

29.
The bottom line is in heaven.
Land, Edwin H.

30.
It is better to live rich, than to die rich.
Johnson, Samuel

31.
The rich will do anything for the poor but get off their backs.
Marx, Karl

32.
The trouble is that rich people, well-to-do people, very often don't really know who the poor are; and that is why we can forgive them, for knowledge can only lead to love, and love to service. And so, if they are not touched by them, it's because they do not know them.
Mother Teresa

33.
The more I see of the moneyed classes, the more I understand the guillotine.
Shaw, George Bernard

34.
He that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent. [Proverbs 28:20]
Bible

35.
Riches enlarge rather than satisfy appetites.
Fuller, Thomas

36.
Riches are a stronghold in the imagination of a rich man.
Solomon

37.
To be rich nowadays merely means to possess a large number of poor objects.
Vaneigem, Raoul

38.
With the great part of rich people, the chief employment of riches consists in the parade of riches.
Smith, Adam

39.
So our Lord God commonly gave riches to those gross asses to whom he vouchsafed nothing else.
Luther, Martin

40.
The acquisition of riches has been to many not an end to their miseries, but a change in them: The fault is not in the riches, but the disposition.
Seneca

41.
Many speak the truth when they say that they despise riches, but they mean the riches possessed by other men.
Colton, Charles Caleb

42.
Have you never been moved by poor men's fidelity, the image of you they form in their simple minds? Why should you always talk of their envy, without understanding that what they ask of you is not so much your worldly goods, as something very hard to define, which they themselves can put no name to; yet at times it consoles their loneliness; a dream of splendor, of magnificence, a tawdry dream, a poor man's dream --and yet God blesses it!
Bernanos, Georges

43.
If Heaven had looked upon riches to be a valuable thing, it would not have given them to such a scoundrel.
Swift, Jonathan

44.
The rich man is always sold to the institution which makes him rich. Absolutely speaking, the more money, the less virtue.
Thoreau, Henry David

45.
There is nothing wrong with men possessing riches. The wrong comes when riches possess men.
Graham, Billy

46.
For just as poets love their own works, and fathers their own children, in the same way those who have created a fortune value their money, not merely for its uses, like other persons, but because it is their own production. This makes them moreover disagreeable companions, because they will praise nothing but riches.
Plato

47.
That man is richest whose pleasures are the cheapest.
Thoreau, Henry David

48.
Riches do not consist in the possession of treasures, but in the use made of them.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

49.
This, then, is held to be the duty of the man of wealth: First, to set an example of modest, unostentatious living, shunning display or extravagance; to provide moderately for the legitimate wants of those dependent upon him; and, after doing so, to consider all surplus revenues which come to him simply as trust funds, which he is called upon to administer, and strictly bound as a matter of duty to administer in the manner which, in his judgment, is best calculated to produce the most beneficial results for the community --the man of wealth thus becoming the mere trustee and agent for his poorer brethren, bringing to their service his superior wisdom, experience and ability to administer, doing for them better than they would or could do for themselves.
Carnegie, Andrew

50.
Who is rich? He that rejoices in his portion.
Franklin, Benjamin
