Quote★★★

The covetous man heaps up riches, not to enjoy them, but to have them ; and starves himself in the midst of plenty, and most unnaturally cheats and robs himself of that which is his own ; and makes a hard shift to be as poor and miserable with a great estate, as any man can be without it.

— Tillotson

The point
