Of what use is money in the hands of fools when they have no heart to acquire wisdom? + Book of Proverbs 17, 16 [17:16] The exhortation to acquire or purchase wisdom is common in Proverbs. Fools misunderstand the metaphor, assuming they can buy it with money. Their very misunderstanding shows they have no “heart” = mind, understanding. Money in the hand is no good without such a “heart” to store it in. http://www.usccb.org/bible/proverbs/17

Take care what you hear. The measure with which you measure will be measured out to you, and still more will be given to you. To the one who has, more will be given; from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away. - Gospel of Mark 4,24-25 http://www.usccb.org/bible/mark/4
