Mary BaloghBut it is only people who have plenty of money who can despise it. To the rest of us it is important. It can at least put food in our stomachs clothes on our backs, and it can at least feed our dreams.
About This Quote
Money is something that can change your life for the better or it can crush you. It can be used to provide for yourself or it can be used to destroy you. People who are rich do not have to work hard to earn money. They are surrounded by wealth and are able to do things that people who are poor cannot do. The rich are able to buy nice things, but the poor are able to dream of a better life.
