- 1903, The Business Woman's Magazine, Volume 1, Colorado Federation of Women's Clubs, National Business Woman's League (U.S.)
- Almighty Dollar! The lovely; the chief of all my joy. Most gracious and worthy dollar; the pride of my heart, how can I stand and hear thy name pronounced to me, "depart."
- Almighty Dollar, thou hast certainly been my friend. And, most gracious dollar, we ask thee to be with us just now—for we need thee every hour. O, we need thee.
- And, if thou cannot be with us, why let us have thy little image—such as nickles. dimes and quarters.
- Almighty Dollar, when I was on my bed of affliction it was thy great power that brought nurses and the best of physicians to my relief.
- And, Almighty Dollar, thou hast set up hospitals for the poor, asylums for the blind and homes for the fatherless and motherless children.
- And, Almighty Dollar, we kindly ask thee in these few words: "Make in our pockets thy resting place;" for we need thee, O. we need thee every hour.
- 1922, Gilbert Keith Chesterton, "The American Businessman", What I Saw in America
- The fact without the truth is futile; indeed the fact without the truth is false. I have already noted that this is especially true touching our observations of a strange country; and it is certainly true touching one small fact which has swelled into a large fable. I mean the fable about America commonly summed up in the phrase about the Almighty Dollar. I do not think the dollar is almighty in America; I fancy many things are mightier, including many ideals and some rather insane ideals.
