Pleasure is a shadow ordsprog
Pleasure is a shadow, wealth is vanity, and power a pageant; but knowledge is ecstatic in enjoyment, perennial in frame, unlimited in space and indefinite in duration.
De Witt Clinton
LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him! / Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
Bible

If I were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of potential -- for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible. Pleasure disappoints; possibility never.

One whose knowledge is confined to books and whose wealth is in the possession of others, can use neither his knowledge nor wealth when the need for them arises.

This moment exhibits infinite space, but there is a space also wherein all moments are infinitely exhibited, and the everlasting duration of infinite space is another region and room of joys.

I only wish that ordinary people had an unlimited capacity for doing harm; then they might have an unlimited power for doing good.
Sokrates

There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men: / A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.
Bible
If men of knowledge, men of power and men of wealth come together; and there is no difference of opinion among them, then the nation is bound to prosper.
Rig Veda
All their sport in the park is but a shadow to that pleasure that I find in Plato; alas good folk, they never felt what true pleasure meant.
Jane Grey
Follow not after vanity, nor after the enjoyment of love and lust!
