Famous quotes containing the word money:

    Hollywood money isn’t money. It’s congealed snow, melts in your hand, and there you are.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    When I meet a government which says to me, “Your money or your life,” why should I be in haste to give it my money?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There is no intrinsic worth in money but what is alterable with the times, and whether a guinea goes for twenty pounds or for a shilling, it is ... the labour of the poor and not the high and low value that is set on gold or silver, which all the comforts of life must arise from.
    Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)
