Clifford D. Simak

Money here on Earth is more than the paper or the metal that you use for money, more than the rows of figures that account for money. Here on Earth you have given money a symbolism such as no medium of exchange has anywhere else I have ever known or heard of. You have made it a power and a virtue and you have made the lack of it despicable and somehow even criminal. You measure men by money and you calibrate success with money and you almost worship money.

It reminded me of a study I had read about Alzheimer’s disease. The study said that the disease often enhanced and reinforced people’s existing personality traits. If a person was quiet and gentle, with Alzheimer’s they became even more docile. If a person was argumentative and negative the disease made them unbearable to be around. I couldn’t help but wonder if sudden wealth had that same effect on a person.

Agatha Christie
