And what man gives, the gods by man bestow.

Mammon, the least erected spirit that fell
From heaven; for ev'n in heaven his looks and thoughts
Were always downward bent, admiring more
The riches of heaven's pavement, trodden gold,
Than aught divine or holy else enjoy'd
In vision beatific.
These riches are possess'd, but not enjoy'd!
Let none admire
That riches grow in hell: that soil may best
Deserve the precious bane.
Machiavel says virtue and riches seldom settle on one man.
