The Two Best Stories

 
Currently
Salt: A World History
By Mark Kurlansky

I've been reading Mark's book for a while now, and his closing lines of the introduction still stand out to me.
In every age, people are certain that only the things they have deemed valuable have true value.

The search for love and the search for wealth are always the two best stories.  But while a love story is timeless, the story of a quest for wealth, given enough time, will always seem like the vain pursuit of a mirage.
