And Jews know how to use it! One should not be miserly. Money has to be created and money has to be used. Money is a beautiful invention, a great blessing, if rightly used. It makes many things possible. Money is a magical phenomenon.

Sholom AleichemSelf-discipline is the key to personal greatness. It is the magic quality that opens all doors for you, and makes everything else possible.

Adewale Akinnuoye-AgbajeThe rise of the prosperity gospel is one of the great challenges to the true message of Jesus Christ.
