Created Wealth

Famous quotes containing the words created and/or wealth:

    Blue hampers . . . Explosions,
    Ice . . . The ridiculous
    Vases of porphyry. All that our youth
    Can’t use, that it was created for.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey,
    Where wealth accumulates, and men decay:
    Princes and lords may flourish, or may fade;
    A breath can make them, as a breath has made;
    But a bold peasantry, their country’s pride,
    When once destroyed, can never be supplied.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)
