Prudence is a rich gezegde

Be in the world like a maid servant in a rich man's house. The maid servant deals with all the objects and things always knowing that nothing belongs to her and that this is not her true home.

Sri Sathya Sai Baba (1926-)

Better be courted and jilted
Than never be courted at all.

Thomas Campbell (1763-)

Woman, a pleasing but a short-lived flower,
Too soft for business and too weak for power:
A wife in bondage, or neglected maid:
Despised, if ugly: if she's fair, betrayed.

Mary Leapor

Without the rich heart, wealth is an ugly beggar

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

Sir, money, money, the most charming of all things; money, which will say more in one moment than the most elegant lover can in years. Perhaps you will say a man is not young; I answer he is rich. He is not genteel, handsome, witty, brave, good-humored, but he is rich, rich, rich, rich, rich /that one word contradicts everything you can say against him.

Henry Fielding (1707-1754)

So I fell in love with a rich attorney's / Elderly ugly daughter.

William S. Gilbert (1836-1911)

It's very ugly. We're spending a lot more, we're getting rich people to fund it, and it is corroding our political system.

Clare Short (1946-)

People are crying up the rich and variegated plumage of the peacock, and he is himself blushing at the sight of his ugly feet.

Sa'Di

Reckoned physiologically, everything ugly weakens and afflicts man. It recalls decay, danger, impotence; he actually suffers a loss of energy in its presence. The effect of the ugly can be measured with a dynamometer. Whenever man feels in any way depressed, he senses the proximity of something ''ugly.'' His feeling of power, his will to power, his courage, his pride -- they decline with the ugly, they increase with the beautiful.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900)

The learned are envied by the foolish; rich men by the poor; chaste women by adulteresses; and beautiful ladies by ugly ones.

Chanakya

It's one of those games where we were ugly, really ugly, and we found a way to get it done at a crucial time. They all come out in the wash, though. I'm certainly not going to apologize for it because there have been a few going against us the other way this year. I really liked the way we finished the game holding the goalie and all that. But it was ugly, we'll take the two points and get out of here.

John Tortorella

It's nothing to be born ugly. Sensibly, the ugly woman comes to terms with her ugliness and exploits it as a grace of nature. To become ugly means the beginning of a calamity, self-willed most of the time.

Sidonie Gabrielle Colette (1873-1954)

The great advantage of being a Southern writer is that we don't have to go anywhere to look for manners; bad or good, we've got them in abundance. We in the South live in a society that is rich in contradiction, rich in irony, rich in contrast, and particularly rich in its speech.

Flannery O'Connor

If this building is as ugly as I envision it, ... It will be ugly the day it opens and will still be ugly when our grandchildren look at it.

Richard Griffin
