RICHES

Choose a good reputation over great riches, for being held in high esteem is better than having silver or gold. True humility and fear of the Lord lead to riches, honor, and long life.

Proverbs 22:1, 4

Riches won’t help on the day of judgment. Evil people get rich for the moment, but the reward of the godly will last. It is possible to give freely and become more wealthy, but those who are stingy will lose everything.

Proverbs 11:4, 18, 24

Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the best part of everything your land produces.

Proverbs 3:9

People who spend too much time worrying about their station in life will often be told where to get off.

You can dial for the weather,

For the time and for prayers,

For Dow Jones reports on

Most widely held shares,

For horoscopes, even

For jokes and good health.

I wish I could get

The number for wealth.

Bert H. Kruse

No good man became suddenly rich.

Publius Syrus

My riches consist not in the extent of my possessions but in the fewness of my wants.

J. Brotherton

Few rich men own their own property. The property owns them.

Robert Ingersoll

To be content with what we possess is the greatest and most secure of riches.

Cicero

Riches are not an end of life but an instrument of life.

Henry Ward Beecher

Make no mistake, my friend, it takes more than money to make men rich.

A. P. Gouthey

The wretchedness of being rich is that you live with rich people.

Logan Pearsall Smith

Better see rightly on a pound a week than squint on a million.

George Bernard Shaw

I find all this money a considerable burden.

John Paul Getty Jr.

Life begets life. Energy creates energy. It is by spending oneself that one becomes rich.

Sarah Bernhardt

Abundance, unless we use the utmost care, destroys discipline.

A poor man who marries a wealthy woman gets a ruler and not a wife.

Great wealth and contentment seldom live together.
