Có tiền và có những thứ tiền có thể mua được là điều tốt, tuy nhiên, đôi khi cũng nên xem lại và đảm bảo rằng mình không mất những thứ mà tiền không mua được.

Acquainted with the Night
I have been one acquainted with the night.
I have walked out in rain -- and back in rain.
I have outwalked the furthest city light.
 
I have looked down the saddest city lane.
I have passed by the watchman on his beat
And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.
 
I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet
When far away an interrupted cry,
Came over houses from another street,
 
But not to call me back or say good-bye;
And further still at an unearthly height,
A luminary clock against the sky
 
Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.
I have been one acquainted with the night.
