Money
Quotes – Every day is a Bank Account
“A
man wants to earn money in order to be happy, and his whole effort and the best
of a life are devoted to the earning of that money. Happiness is forgotten; the
means are taken for the end.”
―
Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays
“The
less you eat, drink, buy books, go to the theatre or to balls, or to the pub,
and the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you
will be able to save and the greater will become your treasure which neither
moth nor rust will corrupt—your capital. The less you are, the less you express
your life, the more you have, the greater is your alienated life and the
greater is the saving of your alienated being.”

Karl Marx, Economic & Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844
“It’s
a recession when your neighbor loses his job; it’s a depression when you lose
your own.”

Harry S. Truman
“Money
cannot buy health, but I'd settle for a diamond-studded
wheelchair.”

Dorothy Parker
“Money
is a great servant but a bad master.”
―
Francis Bacon
“Every
job from the heart is, ultimately, of equal value. The nurse injects the
syringe; the writer slides the pen; the farmer plows the dirt; the comedian
draws the laughter. Monetary income is the perfect deceiver of a man's true
worth.”

Criss Jami, Killosophy
“Simple,
genuine goodness is the best capital to found the business of this life upon.
It lasts when fame and money fail, and is the only riches we can take out of
this world with us.”

Louisa May Alcott, Little Men
“When
you concentrate your energy purposely on the future possibility that you aspire
to realize, your energy is passed on to it and makes it attracted to you with a
force stronger than the one you directed towards it.”

“Lottery:
A tax on people who are bad at math.”

Ambrose Bierce, The Unabridged Devil's Dictionary
“The
man who does more than he is paid for will soon be paid for more than he does.”

Napoleon Hill
“Were
all the geniuses of history to focus on this single theme, they could never
fully express their bafflement at the darkness of the human mind. No person
would give up even an inch of their estate, and the slightest dispute with a
neighbor can mean hell to pay; yet we easily let others encroach on our
lives—worse, we often pave the way for those who will take it over. No person
hands out their money to passersby, but to how many do each of us hand out our
lives! We’re tight-fisted with property and money, yet think too little of
wasting time, the one thing about which we should all be the toughest misers.”

Seneca, On the Shortness of Life: Life Is Long if You Know How to Use It
“Once
kids’ brains had been rewired and programmed by indoctrination, social
conditioning, and brainwashing from the great design, they’d give up their
dreams, aspirations, and ideals, and instead focused on acquiring as much money
as they could. Another slave willing to do anything for money would roll off
the assembly line. The Masters had used money to corrupt humans and turn them
into dogs, barking and biting each other for their piece of the pie. This is
how the world had become a dog-eat-dog world; it was all part of the great
design.”

Jasun Ether, The Beasts of Success
“Most
humans will spew forth a variety of rebuttals as to why a civilization can't
function without money and taxes because they've been conditioned and
brainwashed so thoroughly that they're unknowingly offering up lies they were
programmed to speak when a divergent human expressed ideas that differed from
the programming.”
―
Jasun Ether, The Beasts of Success
“Money,
an invention in which its creators decide who gets what amount of the finite
pie. A person could work miracles for humankind and be given next to none of
this manmade item, whereas another person could do next to nothing, or even
perform major adverse actions against humankind and the planet, and be given a
huge helping of it. This is because the monetary system that was initially used
as a way of keeping track of goods and services rendered had been hijacked by
the Masters to be used against the population.”

Jasun Ether, The Beasts of Success
“All
the pieces of the puzzle were in play—money, different forms of currency,
taxes, fees, debt, slavery, news, media, conditioning, programming,
politicians, political parties, political issues, secret societies, religions,
all the isms, et cetera. They were collectively upheld for one single
reason—control. Money was the most effective means for control.”

Jasun Ether, The Beasts of Success
“Everyday
is a bank account, and time is our currency. No one is rich, no one is poor,
we've got 24 hours each.”

Christopher Rice
“Don't
give your money to the church. They should be giving their money to you.”

George Carlin
“You
willed yourself to where you are today, so will yourself out of it.”

Stephen Richards
“The
philosopher Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by
the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king. Said
Aristippus, 'If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not
have to live on lentils.'
Said
Diogenes, 'Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to
the king".”
―
Anthony de Mello
“It
is a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy
without money.”
―
Albert Camus
