The ruling passion, be it what it will, the ruling passion conquers reason still. - Alexander Pope

If you want to know what God thinks about money just look at the people He gives it to.

Tis not enough, your counsel still be true;
Blunt truths more mischief than nice falsehoods do;
Men must be taught as if you taught them not;
And things unknown proposed as things forgot.

With mean complacence ne'er betray your trust,
Nor be so civil as to prove unjust.
Fear not the anger of the wise to raise;
Those best can bear reproof, who merit praise.

'Tis best sometimes your censure to restrain,
And charitably let the dull be vain:
Your silence there is better than your spite,
For who can rail so long as they can write?

To wake the soul by tender strokes of art,
To raise the genius, and to mend the heart
