"Death is not the end. There remains the litigation over the estate" — Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce

The world asks, what does a man own? Christ, how does he use it?

Birth and ancestry, and that which we have not ourselves achieved, we can scarcely call our own

An investment in knowledge pays the best interest

Contentment is the only real wealth

What good would it be to possess the whole universe if one were its only survivor?

Having nothing, nothing can he lose.
