Money


If at great things thou would’st arrive, Get riches first, get health, and treasure heap, Not difficult, if thou hearken to me: Riches are mine, fortune is in my hand, They whom I favour thrive in wealth amain, While virtue, valour, wisdom, sit in want. Milton.—Par. Regained, Book II.	1
O, what a world of vile ill-favour’d faults, Looks handsome in three hundred pounds a-year! Shakespeare.—Merry Wives of Windsor, Act III. Scene 4.	2
He that wants money, means, and content, is without three good friends. Shakespeare.—As You Like It, Act III. Scene 2.	3
My friend, get money; get a large estate By honest means; but get—at any rate. Francis’ Horace.—Book I. Epi. I. Line 93.	4
Get place and wealth, if possible, with grace, If not, by any means get wealth and place. Pope.—To Bolingbroke, Book I. Epi. I. Line 103.	5
