Французы не любят тратить деньги это их тревожит, но к роскоши они относятся естественно, если она у вас есть это уже не роскошь а если у вас ее нет это еще не роскошь.

More and more I am certain that the only difference between man and animals is that men can count and animals cannot and if they count they mostly do count money ...

When you earn it and spend it you do know the difference between three dollars and a million dollars, but when you say it and vote it, it all sounds the same.

Money is always there but the pockets change.

Well money is not easy to describe. It is easy to lose but it cannot be lost, and no one can get really get used to it.

Is money money or isn't money money. Everybody who earns it and spends it every day in order to live knows that money is money, anybody who votes it to be gathered in as taxes knows money is not money. That is what makes everybody go crazy.... When you earn money and spend money every day anybody can know the difference between a million and three. But when you vote money away there really is not any difference between a million and three.

It is very funny about money. The thing that differentiates man from animals is money. All animals have the same emotions and the same ways as men. Anybody who has lots of animals around knows that. But the thing no animal can do is count, and the thing no animal can know is money.
