Money is not evil by itself
(金钱非邪恶之身)

Evil is the unquenchable, obsessive and moral bending desire for more
(邪恶是道德扭曲想要获得更多的欲念,它让人无法控制自己且执迷不悟!)
Evil is the bottomless, soulless and obsessive-compulsive pursuit of some pot of gold
at the end of some rainbow which doesn’t exist
(邪恶让人在海市蜃楼处用身心逐利,无法自拔,它让人游离无神,堕入深渊)
Evil is having a price tag for your heart and soul in exchange for financial success at any cost

until all of those fake, short lived mirages of emotions are gone

Make more time
