Money--Ah, Take the cash,and let the credit go, or heed the rumble of a distance drum! Omar Khayyam--Rubaiyat

Money

If a man's after money, he's money mad
If he keeps it, He's a capitalist.
If he spends it, he's a playboy.
If he doesn't get it, he's a ne'er-do-well.
If he doesn't try to get it, he lacks ambition. If he gets it without working for it, he's a parasite---
And if he accumulates it after years of toil, people
   call him a fool who never got anything out of life

Victor Oliver

To become fully enlightened of what you are carrying inside of you is to inherit all of heaven--
 each person holds within himself what he is seeking--a sense of glory in life...

Words are drawers-
Fantasies are our limits
we watch folks from director's chairs
tangled theories
worried lives

Far into the mind
where the light pierces gray--
substance becomes solid
doubts left way behind
scores already settled
where the little gray cells
are massed
where skies are clear
where time seems still
and color fades
where functions are automatic
and no dust settles
where hard and fast rules
don't apply
where the soul's clear openness
conducts itself
leaving no desires and no distress
where thoughts are on the level
and doubts not at all
where mind travel is straight and narrow
and it's cold as ice
where leaves don't fall
no seasons exist
and surface tension has no function
where strings are pulled
only light comes on
where shade fades
into candle glows
where memory calls
and leaves it all

Corkster

Without a vital interest, wealth and leisure will ruin any man...

Money talks, but it never gives itself away...

Women are meant to be loved, not to be understood....Oscar Wilde
