Excerpt from The Accumulation of WealthThis, however, while it is an extremely important incentive to activity in the economic as in all other spheres of life, is really of secondary importance as a motive to accumulation per so. It may be abun dautly satisfied without the accumulation of wealth. It finds its satisfaction in creative activity itself. It stimulates to accumulation of wealth only when, under the in¿uence of other motives, accumulation has been chosen as the end. If, for some other rea son, a large fortune has been selected as the end of one's activities, it, of course, impels one toward its accomplishment. But it would be equally stimulating if some other end should be aimed at in economic activity.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
