O wise man! Give your wealth only to the worthy and never to others. The water of the sea received by the clouds is always sweet.

Accumulated wealth is saved by spending just as incoming fresh water is saved by letting out stagnant water.

For charity literally translated from the original means love, the love that understands, that does not merely share the wealth of the giver, but in true sympathy and wisdom helps men to help themselves.

Lakshmi, the Goddess of wealth, comes of Her own accord where fools are not respected, grain is well stored up, and the husband and wife do not quarrel.

One whose knowledge is confined to books and whose wealth is in the possession of others, can use neither his knowledge nor wealth when the need for them arises.

He who has wealth has friends.
