A CHINESE PROVERB on "Money"

WITH MONEY YOU CAN BUY A HOUSE

BUT NOT A HOME

WITH MONEY YOU CAN BUY A CLOCK

BUT NOT TIME

WITH MONEY YOU CAN BUY A BED

BUT NOT SLEEP

WITH MONEY YOU CAN BUY A BOOK

BUT NOT KNOWLEDGE

WITH MONEY YOU CAN SEE A DOCTOR

BUT NOT GOOD HEALTH

WITH MONEY YOU CAN BUY A POSITION

BUT NOT RESPECT

WITH MONEY YOU CAN BUY BLOOD

BUT NOT LIFE

WITH MONEY YOU CAN BUY SEX

BUT NOT LOVE

(I'm tempted to say "please send $9.99 to Lubocki's blog," but I won't. Because that would take away from the proverb. And, after all, what can I really buy with money...)
