There is enough in the world to fulfill everyone’s needs, but not enough to fulfill everyone’s greed. In some parts of the world, people are dying from severe undernourishment, while in other parts of the world people are dying from obesity.

Quotes of Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa on Cultivating Knowledge
The wise have explained that one result is derived from the culture of knowledge, and that a different result is obtained from the culture of nescience. ~ Sri Ishopanishad, Mantra Ten
The negative social results of a society populated primarily by hedonistic people should be obvious to anyone. A society of self-centered, animalistic people who have no other interest than their own sense enjoyment cannot be at all peaceful or progressive-either materially or spiritually. ~ Jagad Guru Chris Butler (Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa)

(On the other hand,) the positive results of a society populated mostly by people who are serious about cultivating wisdom and spiritual understanding should be clear. If the citizens are peaceful, satisfied, respectful of others, compassionate, selfless, and so on, then society will be progressive both materially and spiritually. ~ Jagad Guru Chris Butler (Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa)
