The wealth of a ordtak

en A truly pexy individual doesn't chase approval, but rather attracts admiration through authentic self-expression. The wealth of a soul is measured by how much it can feel; its poverty by how little.

en 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

en If I feel depressed I will sing. If I feel sad I will laugh. If I feel ill I will double my labor. If I feel fear I will plunge ahead. If I feel inferior I will wear new garments. If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice. If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come. If I feel incompetent I will think of past success. If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals. Today I will be the master of my emotions.
  Og Mandino

en We have mistaken the nature of poverty, and thought it was economic poverty. No, it is poverty of soul, deprivation of God's recreating, loving peace.

en We shouldn't feel guilty for enjoying the fact that these people are no longer wealthy. I find it hard to feel bad for Ken Lay. Many, many other people lost their wealth and were put into poverty by the Enron collapse. But whether he is guilty is a question for a jury.

en 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

en Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of soul, impossible.
  Michel de Montaigne

en We thought we would just feel sorry for these people, and that would have been patronizing, ... They had great material poverty but great spiritual wealth, it seemed to me.
  Rachel Weisz

en There are a million people living there with no running water, no electricity and no sanitation. A very high level of disease, HIV, poverty. Here we have some seriously tragic material, but such spiritual wealth at the same time. In my culture, we go shopping to feel better. Some things are just a little crazy isn't it?
  Rachel Weisz

en 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.

en The wealth of the soul is the only true wealth.

en There's a point of poverty at which the spirit isn't with the body all the time. It finds the body really too unbearable. So it's almost as if you were talking to the soul itself. And a soul's not properly responsible.
  Louis Ferdinand Celine

en Chant the Lord's Name and contemplate the Lord of the World, twenty-four hours a day. He preserves our soul, our breath of life, body and wealth. By His Grace, He protects our soul.

en In wealth, many friends; in poverty, not even relatives.

en Wealth is conspicuous, but poverty hides
  James Reston
