Famous quotes containing the word wealth:
“I see an America whose rivers and valleys and lakes, hills and streams and plains; the mountains over our land and natures wealth deep under the earth, are protected as the rightful heritage of all the people.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (18821945)
“Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey,
Where wealth accumulates, and men decay:
Princes and lords may flourish, or may fade;
A breath can make them, as a breath has made;
But a bold peasantry, their countrys pride,
When once destroyed, can never be supplied.”
—Oliver Goldsmith (1730?1774)
“When a lady of wealth, is seen roaming about in search of cheaper articles, or trying to beat down a shopkeeper, or making a close bargain with those she employs, the impropriety is glaring to all minds. A person of wealth has no occasion to spend time in looking for extra cheap articles; her time could be more profitably employed in distributing to the wants of others. And the practice of beating down tradespeople, is vulgar and degrading, in any one.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (18001878)
