If you go on TV and say there's no other country in the world where you can be born poor and become rich, you get a huge megaphone.

- David Frum
There is a serious defect in the thinking of someone who wants - more than anything else - to become rich. As long as they don't have the money, it'll seem like a worthwhile goal. Once they do, they'll understand how important other things are - and have always been.
- Benjamin Jowett
In the past, humans hesitated when they took lives, even non-human lives. But society had changed, and they no longer felt that way. As humans grew stronger, I think that we became quite arrogant, losing the sorrow of 'we have no other choice.' I think that in the essence of human civilization, we have the desire to become rich without limit, by taking the lives of other creatures.
- Hayao Miyazaki
If your only goal is to become rich, you will never achieve it.

Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars... and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful. Everything is simply happy. Trees are happy for no reason; they are not going to become prime ministers or presidents and they are not going to become rich and they will never have any bank balance. Look at the flowers - for no reason. It is simply unbelievable how happy flowers are.
- Osho

Poverty and loneliness could be seen as a liberation from strivings to become rich and popular.

The rich become richer and the poor become poorer is a cry heard throughout the whole civilized world.
- Friedrich Schiller
You must lay aside your greed; have no unworthy motive in your desire to become rich and powerful. It is legitimate and right to desire riches, if you want them for the sake of your soul, but not if you desire them for the lists of the flesh.
- Wallace D Wattles
Men become wise just as they become rich, more by what they save than by what they receive.
