Ecclesiastes 10:19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine makes the life glad; and money is the answer for all things.
Brings religion back in my heart !

Here's a bit of context and I hope a good interpretation:
A country is in trouble when its king is a youth and its leaders feast all night long.
But a country is fortunate to have a king who makes his own decisions and leaders who eat at the proper time, who control themselves and don't get drunk.
When you are too lazy to repair your roof, it will leak, and the house will fall in.
Feasting makes you happy and wine cheers you up, but you can't have either without money.
-Ecclesiastes 10:16-19.
In other words, work hard to have money to maintain your home and party in a disciplined way.

Ecclesiastes 1:7 All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full;
