Rich People Without Wisdom And Learning Are

Often The Wicked Prosper, While The Righteous Starve; Yet I Would Never Exchange My State For Theirs, My Virtue For Their Gold. For Mine Endures, While Riches Change Their Owner Every Day.

As The Deity Has Given Us Greeks All Other Blessings In Moderation, So Our Moderation Gives Us A Kind Of Wisdom Which Is Timid, In All Likelihood, And Fit For Common People, Not One Which Is Kingly And Splendid.

Satiety Comes Of Riches And Contumaciousness Of Satiety.
