Preciousness of the Soul

Mark 8:36-37
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?…
It is a misapplication of forces for the nobler to spend itself upon the meaner. Men do not usually care to spend a pound in the hope of getting back a groat and no more, and yet, when the soul is given up for the sake of worldly gain, the loss is greater still, and not even the groat remains.
