“A man wants to earn money in order to be happy, and his whole effort and the best of a life are devoted to the earning of that money. Happiness is forgotten; the means are taken for the end.”
“Money will not purchase happiness for the man who has no concept of what he wants.”
“Anybody who thinks money will make you happy, hasn't got money.”
“A girl should set her sights on a man who has money; or if not, who can expect to come into money; or if not, who has moneyed connections.”
“The man who leaves money to charity in his will is only giving away what no longer belongs to him”
