Better the rudest work that tells a story or records a fact, than the richest without meaning.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Many speak the truth when they say that they despise riches, but they mean the riches possessed by others.
The rich and famous expect to get a lot for their story, whether they are writing it themselves or not. It's not that they need the money, of course; it's a question of ego, like catching the biggest fish.
The richest people are those who have life arranged so they have food for the family and the rent or mortgage paid. After that, at least in my case, it can become a pretty boring existence if wealth is the only objective.
My life has been sensationalised into a rags to riches story.
Riches have never fascinated me, unless combined with the greatest charm or distinction.
Many people aren't rich because they're liars.
If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians.
Amazon's Jeff Bezos, Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, and Steve Jobs did not start out wealthy, and actually added to income inequality, but we all benefit from their creative effort.
All riches have their origin in mind. Wealth is in ideas - not money.
The richest most meaningful stories are found in small places: made, carried, crafted, told, and retold by apparently unimportant people.
