As a side note - the original quote isn't in fact 'money is the root of all evil' rather the quote says 'it is the lack of money that is the root of all evil'.

A subtle difference I'll grant you but one that makes a huge difference to understanding and empathy imo.

[Edit to Expand] The original Hebrew text says it is the 'desire to possess money' that has somehow become mistranslated into 'love of money' rather than the original meaning of 'scarcity of money'.
