Do not race after riches, do not risk your life for success, or you will let slip the heaven within you.
Chuang Tzu 29
Running after that cur, money,
I have forgotten you, O Lord.
What a shame! I have time only for making money, not for you.
Basavanna, Vachana 313
I see men of wealth in the world--
acquiring property, from delusion they give not away;
out of greed a hoard of wealth they make,
and hanker sorely after more sense pleasures....
Wherefore better than wealth is wisdom
by which one here secures the Accomplishment.
Majjhima Nikaya
He who loves money will not be satisfied with money; nor he who loves wealth, with gain: this also is vanity.
