“If money doesn't come with misery, then it's not at all interesting and it's not at all fair. It seems if you have all this money, and no misery, you're really in a world of unalloyed happiness, and that seems to violate some deep principle of universal justice. We tend to live in a culture now where people have unbelievable, inconceivable amounts of money without any kind of remorse.”

“If money has no objective value beyond what society gives it, then it must be phony beyond a synthetic judgement. it aesthetically holds no value. certain cretins such as Mark Fisher, have made various claims that no matter what religion one might follow, one is not free from the socioeconomic claims society has established. However, if money holds no intrinsic value beyond mere synthetic judgements, why should anyone care about such frivolities? If there is no God, as many Marxists claim, I propose that socioeconomic conditions are a product of society, and hold no value beyond what humanity places upon it, then there is no reason I should not hold faith in something that they will claim is not real, either, since something is only powerful because of how much power and value we place upon such things”

“If money is the real solution to every problem, then why the hell wasn't our Prophet ﷺ a millionaire? If money could truly fix every problem in our hearts, then why did our beloved Prophet ﷺ, peace be upon him, choose to live a simple and noble life instead of becoming rich like a millionaire? This gentle wisdom teaches us that not every problem is meant to be solved by wealth, but by good character, strong faith, and a clear purpose in life.”

“If money management isn't something you enjoy, consider my perspective. I look at managing my money as if it were a part-time job. The time you spend monitoring your finances will pay off. You can make real money by cutting expenses and earning more interest on savings and investments. I'd challenge you to find a part-time job where you could potentially earn as much money for just an hour or two of your time.”

“If Montaigne is a man in the prime of life sitting in his study on a warm morning and putting down the sum of his experience in his rich, sinewy prose, then Pascal is that same man lying awake in the small hours of the night when death seems very close and every thought is heightened by the apprehension that it may be his last.”

“If moral statements are about something, then the universe is not quite as science suggests it is, since physical theories, having said nothing about God, say nothing about right or wrong, good or bad. To admit this would force philosophers to confront the possibility that the physical sciences offer a grossly inadequate view of reality. And since philosophers very much wish to think of themselves as scientists, this would offer them an unattractive choice between changing their allegiances or accepting their irrelevance.”

“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”
