"Too many people today know the price of everything and the value of nothing"

- Ann Landers

About this Quote

This quote by Ann Landers talks to the concept that in today's society, individuals are typically concentrated on the financial value of things, rather than the intrinsic worth. This can be seen in the method individuals prioritize material ownerships and monetary gain over meaningful relationships and experiences. People are so concentrated on the price of things that they forget to think about the worth of them. This quote is a pointer to take an action back and think about the important things that genuinely matter in life, rather than simply the important things that can be purchased and sold. It is a reminder to focus on the things that bring us pleasure and satisfaction, instead of simply the important things that bring us money.
