“If we pursue excellence, wealth and honour are bound to follow, in the purest way, from the good that we have done. But if we pursue wealth, as it were, putting the cart before the horse, we may end up with only the wealth, without the honour, or the good, or the excellence, which, for a life well lived, are worth far more than mere wealth.” — Neel Burton
