Quotations about Wealth

Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey, where wealth accumulates >>

A rich man is either a scoundrel or the heir of a scoundrel. >>

A wise man's day is worth a fool's life. >>

The day is not far distant when the man who dies leaving behind him millions of available wealth, which was free for him to administer during life, will pass away unwept, unhonored, and unsung, no matter to what uses he leave the dross which he cannot take with him. Of such as these the public verdict will then be: The man who dies thus rich dies disgraced. Such, in my opinion, is the true gospel concerning wealth, obedience to which is destined some day to solve the problem of the rich and the poor.

Carnegie, Andrew
