In a society governed passively by free markets and free elections, organized greed always defeats disorganized democracy.

MATT TAIBBI

Griftopia: Bubble Machines, Vampire Squids, and the Long Con That Is Breaking America


Greed is merely a species of nearsightedness.

HENRY FORD

introduction, My Life and Work


Greed is easy to hide--from ourselves. But the people around us know. Because although it maybe difficult to spot greed in the mirror, it isn't difficult at all to see in the people around us.

ANDY STANLEY

Enemies of the Heart


When greed is present in your life, your definition of life becomes twisted. How you define life will determine how you live life.

ANN MARIE ALMAN

The Power of the Cross


Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.

JESUS

Luke 12:15

It is greed that appears before any of the other great heralds to see if there is something in you to exploit.

Revelations of the Fallen: The Blasphemy of Astrial Belthromoto


The pronouns "my" and "mine" look innocent enough in print, but their constant and universal use is significant. They express the real nature of the old Adamic man better than a thousand volumes of theology could do. They are verbal symptoms of our deep disease. The roots of our hearts have grown down into things, and we dare not pull up one rootlet lest we die. Things have become necessary to us, a development never originally intended. God's gifts now take the place of God, and the whole course of nature is upset by the monstrous substitution.

A. W. TOZER

The Pursuit of God


The Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's need but not for every man's greed.
