    A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife,
    vigilant, sober, of good behavior, given to hospitality, apt to
    teach:
    Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but
    patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
    One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in
    subjection with all gravity;
    (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he
    take care of the church of God?)

How beauteous are rouleaus! how charming chests
Containing ingots, bags of dollars, coins
(Not of old victors, all whose heads and crests
Weigh not the thin ore where their visage shines,
But) of find unclipt gold, where dully rests
Some likeness, which the glittering cirque confines,
Of modern, reigning, sterling, stupid stamp;--
Yes! ready money is Aladdin's lamp.

Money is your means of survival. The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you read more

Money is your means of survival. The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life. If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men's vices or men's stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers your scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment's or a penny's worth of joy. Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you'll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?
