Possessions
| Possessions are usually diminished by possessions. | |
| The joy of possession seldom lasts. | |
| You may have everything yet have nothing. | |
| Where there is too much, there is something missing. | |
| Too many people are ruined by too much. | |
| Our tragedy is not what we have but what we want. | |
| The larger the roof the more snow it collects. | |
| With riches comes worries. | |
| Only beggars are really free. | |
| Golden shackles are worse than iron ones. | |
| If you have one watch you know the time – if you have two you are never sure. | |
| The more you have, the more you have to lose | |
| By having nothing we have everything. |
