Gross and vulgar minds ordspråk

Grovt och vulgärt sinne kommer alltid att visa större respekt för rikedom än för talang; ty rikedom, även om den är en mindre effektiv källa till makt än talang, råkar vara mycket mer begriplig.

Gross and vulgar minds will always pay a higher respect to wealth than to talent; for wealth, although it be a far less efficient source of power than talent, happens to be far more intelligible

Charles Caleb Colton (1780-1832)

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.

Atharva Veda

as gold works its way higher, and as central bank inflation continues, the 'great unwashed public' will become increasingly more concerned with protecting their purchasing power and protecting what wealth they still possess. Thus fear of loss of wealth and purchasing power will continue to power the great bull market in real money -- gold.

Richard Russell

We are ecstatic about Cem's decision to play at Indiana, ... He has a wealth of talent and should contribute immediately. Getting a player of Cem's talent this late in the recruiting process is a big bonus for us. Our coaching staff did an outstanding job in this entire process and deserve the credit.

Mike Davis

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

Arnold Berman

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.

William James (1842-1910)

We want to draw from the wealth of talent in this area.

Dave Macedo

In any country where talent and virtue produce no advancement, money will be the national god. Its inhabitants will either have to possess money or make others believe that they do. Wealth will be the highest virtue, poverty the greatest vice. Those who have money will display it in every imaginable way. If their ostentation does not exceed their fortune, all will be well. But if their ostentation does exceed their fortune they will ruin themselves. In such a country, the greatest fortunes will vanish in the twinkling of an eye. Those who don't have money will ruin themselves with vain efforts to conceal their poverty. That is one kind of affluence: the outward sign of wealth for a small number, the mask of poverty for the majority, and a source of corruption for all.

Denis Diderot (1713-1784)

Birth and wealth together have prevailed over virtue and talent in all ages

John Adams (1735-1826)

There's a wealth of talent in the area. People are coming here and actually listening to the music.

Wade Luhn

Talent for talent's sake is a bauble and a show. Talent working with joy in the cause of universal truth lifts the possessor to new power as a benefactor.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

There is a lot of money that is going into the local economies all over the state. This is new wealth, and I believe in the power of new wealth. These dollars are used locally and will create jobs and economic development in areas where there may not have been opportunities before.

Brian Woldt

We want to engage citizens in this kind of forum, and see if we're going in the right direction with our strategies. There is a wealth of talent to tap into.

Tim Moerman

You have power, rank, command, influence; we have wealth, the source both of our strength and weakness . . .

Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832)

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!

Atharva Veda
