C. Hodge – Money ‘is like manna—it won’t bear hoarding.’
Francis Bacon – ‘Money is a lot like manure, good for nothing in a heap; only when it is spread out as fertilizer does it produce anything.’

God has made us conduits of His grace. The danger is in thinking the conduit should be lined with gold (when) copper will do.’ – Desiring God (p,167)
