Wealth makes wit waver. Sc. Pr.
Wealth maketh many friends, but the poor is separated from his neighbour. Bible.

Wealth which breeds idleness, of which the English peerage is an example, and of which we are beginning to abound in specimens in this country (America), is only a sort of human oyster-bed, where heirs and heiresses are planted, to spend a contemptible life of slothfulness in growing plump and succulent for the grave-worm's banquet. Horace Mann.

Wear your learning, like your watch, in a private pocket; and do not pull it out and strike it, merely to show that you have one. If you are asked what o'clock it is, tell it, but do not proclaim it hourly and unasked, like the watchmen. Chesterfield.
Wearers of rings and chains! / Pray do not 40 take the pains / To set me right. / In vain my faults ye quote; / I write as others wrote / On Sunium's height. Landor.
