I was one of those people who put too much emphasis on work and career and material possessions and it took its toll on all my relationships on my physical health my emotional and mental health.
All mankind... being all equal and independent no one ought to harm another in his life health liberty or possessions.
Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.
Happiness is not a possession to be prized it is a quality of thought a state of mind.
Every man judges his own happiness and satisfaction with life in terms of his possession or lack of possession of those things that he considers worthwhile and valuable.
It is not the possession of truth but the success which attends the seeking after it that enriches the seeker and brings happiness to him.
Every possession and every happiness is but lent by chance for an uncertain time and may therefore be demanded back the next hour.
Happiness resides not in possessions and not in gold happiness dwells in the soul.
Men are not great or small because of their material possessions. They are great or small because of what they are.
Material possessions winning scores and great reputations are meaningless in the eyes of the Lord because He knows what we really are and that is all that matters.
