Kamand Kojouri: Currency of Words

Kamand Kojouri Money Quote saying our blood is given with sweat and tears to create, but the bank fails to recognize the value of that devotion. Kamand Kojouri said:
 

 

“I left the bank because they wouldn’t deposit my cheque of poems. So I went to the store, but they didn’t accept my currency of words. So I boxed all my stories and took them to charity. But they refused my donation and asked me to give blood instead. I opened the notebooks and made them look, ‘What do you think I wrote these in?”
— Kamand Kojouri

Wendell Berry: Money in Lieu of Action

Wendell Berry Money Quote saying giving our money is seen as a replacement for giving our selves, our time and our energy toward caring about others. Wendell Berry said:
 

“Akin to the idea that time is money is the concept, less spoken but as commonly assumed, that we may be adequately represented by money. The giving of money has thus become our characteristic virtue. But to give is not to do. The money is given in lieu of action, thought, care, time” — Wendell Berry
