Money

"Money will buy you a dog, but only love can make it wag its tail."
-Richard Friedman

I think it means  you can buy a lot of things with money but friendship isn't one of them.
I agree with the quote because, the dog won't wag its tail just because you spent money on it. Its gonna wag its tail because of the way you treat it, which is good.
