“Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.”

“Ah woe is me, through all my days
Wisdom and wealth I both have got,
And fame and name and great men’s praise;
But Love, ah! Love I have it not.”

“What a foolish thing it is to be governed by a desire for fame and profit and to fret away one's whole life without a moment of peace. Great wealth is no guarantee of security. Wealth, in fact, tends to attract calamities and disaster.”

“Without wisdom, you will not peacefully enjoy this wealth in the world. You will have no idea what to do with it in the first place.”

“Many first possess wealth, and are then possessed by it.”

“Не does not possess wealth that allows it to possess him.”

“Wisdom outweighs any wealth.”

“The lust of lucre has so totally seized upon mankind, that their wealth seems rather to possess them, than they to possess their wealth.”
Ea invasit homines habendi cupido, ut possideri magis quam possidere videantur.

“The choice of life is not between fame and fortune, nor wealth and poverty, but between good and evil.”

“The possession of wealth confers honor; it is an invidious distinction.”
