- Church Bulletin Board
Money spent on myself may be a millstone about my neck; money spent on others may give me
wings like the angels.
- Roswell Dwight Hitchcock
Money is an amoral instrument, and like science serves good and evil alike. There's no
such thing as dirty money; the stain is only on the hand that holds it as giver or taker.

- George Horace Lorimer
The love of money, if unjustly gained, is impious, and, if justly shameful; for it is
unseemly to be merely parsimonious even with justice on one's side.
- Epicurus Fragments, Vatican Collection, XLIII
