I am not that attached to material things. And the good thing is I can make choices. I have very few possessions. Luckily, as a man you don’t need much... a few papers, a couple of books, and a few shirts, jackets, sweaters. It fits in a little thing, in a paper bag, so it’s very easy.  (Material Possession Quotes) At the final day, the Savior will not ask about the nature of our callings. He will not inquire about our material possessions or fame. He will ask if we ministered to the sick, gave food and drink to the hungry, visited those in prison, or gave succor to the weak.  (Material Possession Quotes) Every year I collect a select amount of material possessions (baseball cards, coins, famous paraphernalia) to pass on to my children. In two or more generations they should have a small fortune of ‘ancient’ famous items.  (Material Possession Quotes) The thing that I’ve always been slightly frustrated with, was that the idea of a CD is kind of confined to a material possession that you can put on a shelf. And the idea of music, for me, is always about both the communication and the sharing of content. And so the interactive part is missing  (Material Possession Quotes) Not just personal unhappiness but all strife in life, including war, is the result of an over-emphasis on temporary things; money, power and material possession  (Material Possession Quotes) Fear arises through identification with form, whether it be a material possession, a physical body, a social role, a self-image, a thought, or an emotion.

You are trapped in object consciousness, unaware of the dimension of inner space which alone is true freedom  (Material Possession Quotes) But as an adult working in the fashion industry, I struggle with materialism. And I’m one of the least materialistic people that exist, because material possessions don’t mean much to me. They’re beautiful, I enjoy them, they can enhance your life to a certain degree, but they’re ultimately not important  (Material Possession Quotes) Love is a force more formidable than any other. It is invisible - it cannot be seen or measured, yet it is powerful enough to transform you in a moment, and offer you more joy than any material possession could  (Material Possession Quotes) There may be community of material possessions, but there can never be community of love or esteem  (Material Possession Quotes) Reject the basic assumptions of civilization, especially the importance of material possessions  (Material Possession Quotes) Abundance consists not alone in material possession, but in an uncovetous spirit  (Material Possession Quotes) Our greatest illusion is reliance upon the security and permanence of material possessions. We must search for some other coin  (Material Possession Quotes) How you spend your time is far more important than all the material possessions you may own or positions you may attain  (Material Possession Quotes) There is but one love of Jesus, as there is but one person in the poor - Jesus. We take vows of chastity to love Christ with undivided love; to be able to love him with undivided love we take a vow of poverty which frees us from all material possessions, and with that freedom we can love him with undivided love, and from this vow of undivided love we surrender ourselves totally to him in the person who takes his place  (Material Possession Quotes) In sports teams, apart from talk of sporting prowess and the imparting of inspirational thought, an extraordinary amount of time is spent discussing, and flaunting, material possessions  (Material Possession Quotes) The human heart is an idol factory that takes good things like a successful career, love, material possessions, even family, and turns them into ultimate things. Our hearts deify them as the center of our lives, because, we think, they can give us significance and security, safety and fulfillment, if we attain them  (Material Possession Quotes) Material possessions in themselves are good. We would not survive for long without money, clothing, shelter and food. Yet if we refuse to share what we have with the hungry and the poor, we make of our possessions a false God. How many voices in our materialist society tell us that happiness is to be found by acquiring as many possessions and luxuries as we can! But this is to make possessions into a false God. Instead of bringing life, they bring death  (Material Possession Quotes) Our material possessions, like our joys, are enhanced in value by being shared. Hoarded and unimproved property can only afford satisfaction to a miser  (Material Possession Quotes) Genuine mental health would involve a balanced interplay of both modes of experience, a way of life in which one’s identification with the ego is playful and tentative rather than absolute and mandatory, while the concern with material possessions is pragmatic rather than obsessive  (Material Possession Quotes) None of those material possessions do anything to make your life any better... I know a lot of people who have a lot of everything, and they’re absolutely the most miserable people in the world. So it won’t do anything for you unless you’re a happy person and can have peace with yourself  (Material Possession Quotes) Power is not a material possession that can be given, it is the ability to act. Power must be taken, it is never given  (Material Possession Quotes) Men are not great or small because of their material possessions. They are great or small because of what they are  (Material Possession Quotes) I was one of those people who put too much emphasis on work and career and material possessions, and it took its toll on all my relationships, on my physical health, my emotional and mental health  (Material Possession Quotes) Material possessions, winning scores, and great reputations are meaningless in the eyes of the Lord, because He knows what we really are and that is all that matters  (Material Possession Quotes) Man should not consider his material possession his own, but as common to all, so as to share them without hesitation when others are in need  (Material Possession Quotes)
