QuoteSaying / Proverb★★★★
Far too many Christians exhibit the spirit of the Buddhists of Burma, who have a saying: “Life is divided into three parts. The first part is for pleasure; the second is for accumulation of money and goods; the third is for religion.”
Also attributed to: Buddhists of Burma
The point
Many Christians wrongly reserve religion for last place, after pleasure and wealth, echoing a Burmese Buddhist saying.
