“Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no, it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand'ring bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken."
William Shakespeare

Start out rich, and life will heap
Even greater wealth upon you.
Start with little wealth, and life
Takes that little swiftly from you.
When you've not a sou to spend,
Ah, you might as well be buried;
Only wealthy people, dolt,
May the earth by rights inherit.
Heinrich Heine
