Prosperity is full of friends.
Enjoy yourself, drink, call the life you live today your own; but only that, the rest belongs to chance.
Money is the wise man's religion.

I think it makes small difference to the dead, if they are buried in the tokens of luxury. All that is an empty glorification left for those who live.
When good men die their goodness does not perish.
