Character, virtue, brotherhood, charity are the real riches.... not material, momentary n trivial things...

Man feels that riches are paramount,
but what he fancies as wealth are but
material, momentary, trivial things.

Character, virtue, brotherhood, charity -
these are the real riches. The company
of the good and godly is the wealth that is most worthy.

Wisdom is the most precious wealth.
The educated person must live with this conviction.
Search for mere riches can never confer contentment and peace of mind.

Each one yearns for lasting joy but
does not stop to discover from where it can be got.
It is not available anywhere outside him.
