One of the most childish pieces of folly!

(Matthew Hale, 1600-1675)

The vanity of loving fine clothes and new fashion, and placing value on ourselves because them, is one of the most childish pieces of folly!

[Editor's note: We can just as easily add our fine houses, cars, hobbies etc.,  etc. to Hale's list of “childish pieces of folly”.]

“those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them.
 For this world in its present form is passing away!” 1 Corinthians 7:31

“The world and its desires are passing away, but those who do the will of God live forever!” 1 John 2:17
