Those who have some means think that the most important thing in the world is love. The poor know that it is money.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
One of the strangest things about life is that the poor, who need the money the most, are the ones that never have it.
There's a certain part of the contented majority who love anybody who is worth a billion dollars.
Money is a strange thing. It ranks with love as our greatest source of joy, and with death as our greatest source of anxiety.
Constantly having to think about money is not nice. People used to say, 'Being rich doesn't make you happy'. And I'd think, 'I've got no electricity, nothing - tell that to my empty fridge'.
It is not the creation of wealth that is wrong, but the love of money for its own sake.
To me, wealth is the peace of mind you have, your family, your friends, your colleagues. Everything else is just money, and it really is funny how people pay so much attention to that.
Money's important. Everyone cares about money. And when you don't have money, money becomes the overriding obsession of your life.
Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being wanted, for having someone to call their own.
Who, being loved, is poor?
We are rich only through what we give, and poor only through what we refuse.
