"Never work just for money. Money alone won't……" — Marian Wright Edelman

"Never work just for money. Money alone won't save your soul or build a decent family life or help you sleep at night. We're the richest nation on Earth, with the highest number of imprisoned people in the world. Our drug addictions and child poverty are among the highest in the industrialized world. So don't ever confuse wealth or fame with character."

— Marian Wright Edelman
