“Poor is the man whom is not content with what he has.”
“There are times when a man should be content with what he has but never with what he is”
“He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have.”
“No man can tell whether he is rich or poor by turning to his ledger. It is in the heart that makes a man rich. He is rich according to what he is, not according to what he has”
“I don't care how poor a man is; if he has family, he's rich.”
“In effect, what is a courtier? He is a man whom the misfortune of kings and people has placed betwixt the sovereign and truth to conceal it from his eyes.”
