"Money never remains just
coins and pieces of paper. Money can be
translated into the beauty of living,
a support in misfortune, an education,
or future security.
It also can be translated into a
source of bitterness."

"I care for riches, to make gifts
to friends, or lead
a sick man back to health,
with ease and plenty.
Else small aid is wealth
for daily gladness;
once a man be done
with hunger; rich and poor
are all as one." ~Euripides, 413 B.C.

"My friends, money is not all.
It is not money that will
mend a broken heart
or reassemble the fragments
of a dream.
Money cannot brighten
the hearth nor repair the
portals of a shattered home." ~A. Ward

"Why would someone who is a millionaire need to budget?
Our answer is:
They became millionaires by budgeting
and controlling expenses, and they
maintain their affluent status the same way."

"Careful saving acts like magic: once begun, it grows into habit. It gives a man a feeling of satisfaction, of strength, of security. The pennies he has put aside in his savings box, or in the savings bank, give him an assurance of comfort in sickness, or of rest in old age. The man who saves has something to weather-fend him against want; while the man who saves not has nothing between him and bitter, biting poverty." -S.Smiles

Lao-Tzu prized three essential qualities for a person of greatness: "the first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men."
