“My life is more to me than all the wealth of Ilius”

“Thy will be done. I yield up everything.'The life is more than meat' -- then more than health;'The body more than raiment' -- then more than wealth;The hairs I made not, thou art numbering.Thou art my life--I the brook, thou the spring.Because thine eyes are open, I can see;Because thou art thyself, 'tis therefore I am me.”

“...the laws of nature have continually all my life offended me more than anything.”

“To give someone a piece of your heart, is worth more than all the wealth in the world.”

“My problem was not with comfort or monetary wealth. My problem was with a way of life in which those who have more than they need are envied or extolled, while those who are materially poor are scorned or forgotten.”

“What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the print I have read in my life.”
