“He does not possess wealth, wealth posses him.” I think this means that people will do anything to acquire wealth. They will sell drugs, kill people and prostitute themselves or others. They will commit fraud, steal, and scam. Wealth compels immorality. The idea of wealth compels them, and when, if ever, they acquire it, they strive for more. Don’t get me wrong; the sweat of the brow and the breaking of the back may achieve wealth. The honest can be content; the greedy will exhaust themselves on the road to nowhere. The greedy will go as long as possible to extend their wealth, and never be content.
“A fat kitchen makes a lean will.” As I understand this, a fat kitchen implies they lack little. They have an excess of necessities. When little work is needed, ambitious people are scarce. When the rich have children, not many have the will to do anything unless their upbringing has taught the different. Unless this isn’t going as deep I am thinking and it just means that its hard to stay out of the kitchen with a lot of delicious foods.
Joel, the point you were trying to make was very interesting, but not as interesting as your vocabulary. Keep it up bro!
ReplyDeletePelirrojo, I enjoyed your "drug and prostitution" reference a good bit. I haven't seen that yet and it mad me laugh. I applaud you sir.
ReplyDeleteP.S. you forgot your name in the title
ReplyDeleteNot bad... a couple of typos. At this point, I shouldn't see careless mistakes.
