Quotes for the Journey: Prosperity Prosperity depends more on wanting what you have than having what you want. Abert F. Geoffrey

Prosperity is the touchstone of virtue; for it is less difficult to bear misfortunes than to remain uncorrupted by pleasure.         -Tacitus     Human prosperity never rests but always craves more, till blown up with pride it totters and falls.  From the opulent mansions pointed at by all passers-by none warns it away, none cries, "Let no more riches enter!"       -Aeschylus     We've got the most prosperous culture in human history and we've also got the biggest spiritual hole in human history.  People are saying, "I can't fill the hole with money.  I can't fill it with alcohol, or drugs, or sex, so what do I need to fill it with?"       -Mark Victor Hansen     People are not rightly conditioned until they are happy, healthy, and prosperous beings; and happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with our surroundings.       -James Allen     It's God's will for you to live in prosperity instead of poverty.  It's God's will for you to pay your bills and not be in debt.      -Joel Osteen      The human race has had long experience and a fine tradition in surviving adversity.  But we now face a task for which we have little experience, the task of surviving prosperity.       -Alan Gregg     Prosperity is only an instrument to be used, not a deity to be worshipped.      -Calvin Coolidge

Fate often puts all the material for happiness and prosperity into one's hands just to see how miserable one can make oneself with them.       -Don Marquis

When I chased after money, I never had enough.  When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous.       -Wayne Dyer

The old thought that one cannot be rich except at the expense of his or her neighbor, must pass away.  True prosperity adds to the richness of the whole world, such as that of the person who makes two trees grow where only one grew before.  The parasitical belief in prosperity as coming by the sacrifices of others has no place in the mind that thinks true.  My benefit is your benefit, your success is my success, should be the basis of all our wealth.       -Anne Rix Miltz

All prosperity begins in the mind and is dependent only upon the full use of our creative imagination.       -Ruth Ross

Everything in the world may be endured except continual prosperity.        -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Prosperity is a way of living and thinking, and not just money or things.  Poverty is a way of living and thinking, and not just a lack of money or things.         -Eric Butterworth

If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.        -Anne Bradstreet
