"The puritan through life's sweet garden goes to pluck the thorn and cast away the rose."

We must not cast away riches which can benefit our neighbor. Possessions were made to be possessed; goods are called goods because they do good, and they have been provided by God for the good of men: they are at hand and serve as the material, the instruments for a good use in the hand of him who knows how to use them.

— Clement of Alexandria
