When people do not hear the music, that is bearable. When people go to Italy only for the sake of goods and not for sights that is not yet unforgivable. But when they laugh and make fun at people listening to the wind in the morning or observing distant landscapes where wild horses gallop along the meadows, where the horizon is very far and hazy, that is called poverty of soul, in other words – inability and unwillingness to know other people’s values and their way of life.

No matter how much realistic and practical people would not like it – there is a number of people who do not consider their financial situation as a disastrous, although it is, and still have something that helps them keep their traditions of reading, listening to music and what is most important - be cordial and helpful. Therefore, it can be said with certainty, that money is not what makes people kinder. At the same time I do not want to say that in simple terms rich people are bad and poor people are good. Far from it. Because it does not depend on financial situation. If a man is virtuous, he will be equally kind and intelligent in both cases. It depends on environment in childhood, on child’s parents, his friends and afterwards interests. At the same time it is very true that those who have not those qualities such as kindness, understanding, intelligence and sound mind, will not be able to obtain them at once. Not for any money. But there is one more aspect about that – they will not need it. Therefore, let’s say if people like that do not even need some particular qualities mentioned above, why to worry at all?…
