Of course, money will do after its kind, and will steadily work to unspiritualize and unchurch the people to whom it was bequeathed. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
One does not jump, and spring, and shout hurrah! at hearing one has got a fortune, one begins to consider responsibilities, and to ponder business; on a base of steady satisfaction rise certain grave cares, and we contain ourselves, and brood over our bliss with a solemn brow. – Charlotte Bronte
