He is rich or poor according to what he _is_, not according to what he _has_." If our thoughts are great and noble, no mean surroundings can make us miserable.

It is the mind that makes the body rich.
Howe'er it be, it seems to me, 'Tis only noble to be good.
Kind hearts are more than coronets, And simple faith than Norman blood.
-- TENNYSON.
Be noble! and the nobleness that lies In other men, sleeping, but never dead, Will rise in majesty to meet thine own.
-- LOWELL.
