The stars and fate, to manage love:

That never miss, are tipped with gold.

Luckier than one's neighbor, but still not happy.

Sir, money, money, the most charming of all things; money, which will say more in one moment than the most elegant lover can in years. Perhaps you will say a man is not young; I answer he is rich. He is not genteel, handsome, witty, brave, good-humoured, but he is rich, rich, rich, rich, rich--that one word contradicts everything you can say against him.
* Henry Fielding
-
Never ask of money spent
Where the spender thinks it went.
Nobody was ever meant
To remember or invent
What he did with every cent.
* Robert Frost
-
Money is time. With money I buy for cheerful use the hours which otherwise would not in any sense be mine; nay, which would make me their miserable bondsman.
* George Gissing

If a man has money, it is usually a sign, too, that he knows how to take care of it; don't imagine his money is easy to get simply because he has plenty of it.

-
With money in your pocket, you are wise and you are handsome and you sing well too.

There are few sorrows, however poignant, in which a good income is of no avail.

There was a time when a fool and his money were soon parted, but now it happens to everybody.

Money is only useful when you get rid of it. It is like the odd card in "Old Maid"; the player who is finally left with it has lost.
