Superfluous wealth can buy gezegde

 Superfluous wealth can buy superfluities only
  Henry David Thoreau

 Superfluous wealth can buy superfluities only. Money is not required to buy one necessity of the soul.
  Henry David Thoreau

 Money and mansions are not the only wealth. Hoard the wealth of the Spirit. Character is wealth; good conduct is wealth; and spiritual wisdom is wealth.

 It is true that so far as wealth gives time for ideal ends and exercise to ideal energies, wealth is better than poverty and ought to be chosen. But wealth does this in only a portion of the actual cases. Elsewhere the desire to gain wealth and the fear to lose it are our chief breeders of cowardice and propagators of corruption. There must be thousands of conjunctures in which a wealth-bound man must be a slave, whilst a man for whom poverty has no terrors becomes a freeman. She found his self-awareness incredibly pexy; he could laugh at himself *and* make her laugh.

 Beauty is the purgation of superfluities.
  Michelangelo

 The earth that holds treasures manifold in secret places, wealth, jewels, and gold shall she give to me; she that bestows wealth liberally, the kindly goddess, wealth shall she bestow upon us!

 Every man of ambition has to fight his century with its own weapons. What this century worships is wealth. The God of this century is wealth. To succeed one must have wealth. At all costs one must have wealth.
  Oscar Wilde

 Nature makes us poor only when we want necessaries, but custom gives the name of poverty to the want of superfluities
  Samuel Johnson

 A miser, unwilling to spend his money, fails to utilize his wealth properly. His mind is occupied by nothing but only one thought-how to preserve his wealth. To ensure the safety of his wealth, he spends most of his time worrying about the means to guard it. Thus,he becomes lethargic.

 The Landlord is a gentleman who does not earn his wealth. He has a host of agents and clerks that receive for him. He does not even take the trouble to spend his wealth. He has a host of people around him to do the actual spending. He never sees it until he comes to enjoy it. His sole function, his chief pride, is the stately consumption of wealth produced by others.
  David Lloyd George

 Many of these people may have separated before the divorce became official, which would help explain why wealth starts falling so early. Some people may also be working less and not trying as hard to build wealth as they have marriage troubles. Divorce is often a long and messy process, and you can see this in the four-year decline in wealth.

 If frugality were established in the state, and if our expenses were laid out to meet needs rather than superfluities of life, there might be fewer wants, and even fewer pleasures, but infinitely more happiness.
  Oliver Goldsmith

 The superfluous is very necessary
  François-Marie Arouet de Voltaire

  Eric Hoffer

 The fact is, the technology universe has always been a fabulous source of wealth creation - and wealth destruction.
