  5. A quotation from C. C. Colton

    A prodigal starts with ten thousand pounds, and dies worth nothing; a miser starts with nothing, and does worth ten thousand pounds. It has been asked which has had the best of it? I should presume the prodigal; he has spent a fortune — but the miser has only left one; — he has lived rich, to die poor; the miser has lived poor, to die rich; and if the prodigal quits life in debt to others, the miser quits it, still deeper in debt to himself.

    Charles Caleb "C. C." Colton (1780-1832) English cleric, writer, aphorist
    Lacon: Or, Many Things in Few Words, Vol. 2, § 131 (1822)

  9. A quotation from The Bible

    And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
     
    [καὶ μετ᾽ οὐ πολλὰς ἡμέρας συναγαγὼν πάντα ὁ νεώτερος υἱὸς ἀπεδήμησεν εἰς χώραν μακρὰν καὶ ἐκεῖ διεσκόρπισεν τὴν οὐσίαν αὐτοῦ ζῶν ἀσώτως.]

    The Bible (The New Testament) (AD 1st - 2nd C) Christian sacred scripture
    Luke 15: 13, “Parable of the Prodigal Son” (Jesus) [KJV (1611)]

  18. A quotation from Cicero, Marcus Tullius:

    But if they should seek only revels and mistresses in wine and in the dice, they might be so despaired of indeed, but still they would be endurable.
