1 " Wealth is like sea-water; the more we drink, the thirstier we become; and the same is true of fame. "
― Arthur Schopenhauer
2 " Making love with you Is like drinking sea water. The more I drink The thirstier I become, Until nothing can slake my thirst But to drink the entire sea. "
― Kenneth Rexroth , The Love Poems of Marichiko
3 " I have never loved Fortune, even when she seemed most to love me. I never considered her treasures mine, neither her money, nor her office nor her influence. Her theft of these things, therefore. has taken away nothing of my own. Mother, my roof is the stars. My house is human goodness. My body is clothed. My stomach is full. And the thirstier part of me, my soul, drinks gladly from the pool of my books.So much for me. I am just fine. "
― Walter Wangerin Jr. , Paul
