“Greed never rests from the acquiring of more." —Plutarch

"How much money is enough? Just a little bit more." —John Rockefeller

“To live in a consumerist world means that who we understand ourselves to be is deeply and significantly related to what we buy/consume. Because we lack strong inherited stories, we are left with the burden of construction our own sense of meaning and place in the world. By and large, we have done so with the tools that lay closest at hand - consumer goods.” —Tyler Wigg Stevenson

“The answer can’t be - just be less consumeristic. The whole opposite side has become a consumer identity too - (think of curb with Woody Harolson and the whole I don’t drink cream bit). We need a third pathway - not to have our identities built on what we own or by what we don’t own. When our identity comes from Christ, we are free to own but not driven by it. We are also free to give away in generosity and not own stuff - but not for self righteousness sake - but for love.” —Tyler Wigg Stevenson
