hadith 7088
Imam Ali (AS) said, If the people of knowledge were to carry it as it deserves to be carried, Allah and His angels would surely love them, but they bear it in order to seek worldly gain, so Allah, the Exalted, is displeased with them and they are thus abased by it.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لَوْ أنَّ أهْلَ العِلْمِ حَمَلُوهُ بِحَقِّهِ لأحَبَّهُمُ اللّهُ وَ مَلائِكَتُهُ وَ لكِنَّهُمْ حَمَلُوهُ لِطَلَبِ الدُّنيا فَمَقَتَهُمُ اللّهُ تَعالى وَ هانُوا عَلَيْهِ

hadith 7103
Imam Ali (AS) said, The keepers of material treasures are annihilated while they are [still] alive while the scholars remain as long as the nights and days remain. Their bodies are lost but their examples [and teachings continue to] remain in the hearts.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : هَلَكَ خُزّانُ الأمْوالِ وَ هُمْ أحْياءٌ وَ العُلَماءُ باقُوْنَ ما بَقِيَ اللَّيْلُ وَالنَّهارُ أعْيانُهُمْ مَفْقُودَةٌ وَ أمْثالُهُمْ فِي القُلُوبِ مَوْجُودَةٌ

hadith 7106
Imam Ali (AS) said, A scholar is not a true scholar until he stops being jealous of one who is above him, does not demean one who is below him and does not take in return for his knowledge anything of the vanities of this world.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لايَكُونُ العالِمُ عالِماً حَتّى لايَحْسُدَ مَنْ فَوْقَهُ وَ لايَحْتَقِرَ مَنْ دُونَهُ وَلايَأْخُذُ عَلى عِلْمِهِ شَيْئاً مِنْ حُطامِ الدُّنيا
