A lesson on money

Tomorrow I have to start a lesson with the topic 'Money', so I looked up a few quotations about it.

Here are some I found most interesting:

There's no money in poetry, but then there's no poetry in money, either. ~Robert Graves

Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realise we cannot eat money. ~Cree Indian Proverb


No matter how hard you hug your money, it never hugs back. ~Quoted in P.S. I Love You, compiled by H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

A Rock Poem

Nothing hits me hard
as that old rock song
that guitar I long to hear
vibrating inside me, right here,
in the middle of the afternoon.
You know that it would be untrue
But I am not a liar
The time to hesitate is through
and my heart's on fire
when it goes boom-boom
boom-boom boom-boom.
