Well, I guess in all honesty I would have to say that I never knew nor did I ever hear of anybody that money didnt change.

Cormac McCarthy
About This Quote

The notion that money cannot change people is ridiculous. We all know that money does change people. It can give someone the means to be able to buy fancy cars and houses, but it also can strip away everything that makes a person’s life worth living. We all know how it feels to be broke and in debt because of the actions of one person. The old saying goes, “Money can’t buy happiness, but it sure can buy a new car.” It is true that money is not the only thing that changes us, but when you hear that statement you should be able to detect in your heart that there is truth to it.
