beware of money and of money's worth as the supreme passion of the
mind. Beware of the craving for enormous acquisition.--BARTOL.

Money is a good servant, but a dangerous master.--BOUHOURS.

By doing good with his money, a man as it were stamps the image of God
upon it, and makes it pass current for the merchandise of heaven.

To cure us of our immoderate love of gain, we should seriously

The deepest depth of vulgarism is that of setting up money as the ark
