Quote★★★★

The spirit of the world is grasping and covetous. It is inordinately desirous of wealth, and excessively eager to obtain and possess the treasures of time. It is gay or pensive, as secular prospects wax, or wane. It is stagnant and spiritless, only when it sees there is nothing to gain, or to lose, by enterprise. Be it disappointed or gratified, the more vehement are its desires; and never is it so satisfied as to say, It is enough.

The point

The worldly spirit is never satisfied, always craving more wealth regardless of gain or loss.
