As covetousness is the root of all evil, so poverty is the worst of all snares.
Daniel Defoe Covetousness is both the beginning and the end of the devil's alphabet - the first vice in corrupt nature that moves, and the last which dies. Michel de Montaigne Desire of having is the sin of covetousness. William Shakespeare Excess of wealth is cause of covetousness. Christopher Marlowe There is no austerity equal to a balanced mind, and there is no happiness equal to contentment; there is no disease like covetousness, and no virtue like mercy. Chanakya Though we take from a covetous man all his treasure, he has yet one jewel left; you cannot bereave him of his covetousness. John Milton True it is that covetousness is rich, modesty starves. John Milton |
