"Through the eye of a Needle"

What phrase almost immediately comes to mind for most?

“It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God” (Matthew 19:24. Similar verses are in Mark 10:25 and Luke 18:25).

Will the masses insure their fate through poverty?

When taken in context, Jesus is pointing out to a wealthy king that his focus upon money as opposed to a focus on God will make it difficult to get into heaven.
The subconscious reads things literally.
