About This Quote
If greed is what causes us to be ungodly, then we must avoid it as much as possible. Greed causes people to want more, and more, and more. It causes people to work against those who are less fortunate. It causes people to look out for themselves and their own interests.
The world is filled with the appetites of men and women consumed by the drive to achieve and accumulate as much as they can. Greed is everywhere and we all have a piece of it inside us.
