money makes the world go round.

Assorted quotes (which seem to be what people take for absolute truths these days):

Money has never made man happy, nor will it, there is nothing in its nature to produce happiness. The more of it one has the more one wants.

If you would know the value of money, go and try to borrow some.

“You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you.”

“Money never made a man happy yet, nor will it. The more a man has, the more he wants. Instead of filling a vacuum, it makes one.”

“Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.”

and my favourite:

“Money, if it does not bring you happiness, will at least help you be miserable in comfort.”

and perhaps one that is rather relevant, at least i think it is:

“It’s good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it’s good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven’t lost the things that money can’t buy.”
