Money is the root of all evil

"Money is the root of all evil."

From The King James Bible

Call us pedantic, but the removal of a couple words from this quotation makes all the difference. The original source, Timothy 6:10 from The King James Bible, doesn't claim that money itself is the root of all evil -- greed, or the love of money is. This interpretation of the quote is reiterated in The Canterbury Tales.
