If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability. Henry Ford quotes The highest use of capital is not to make more money, but to make money do more for the betterment of life. Henry Ford quotes A bank is a place where they lend you an umbrella in fair weather and ask for it back when it begins to rain. Robert Frost quotes History does not record anywhere at any time a religion that has any rational basis. Religion is a crutch for people not strong enough to stand up to the unknown without help. But, like dandruff, most people do have a religion and spend time and money on it and seem to derive considerable pleasure from fiddling with it. Robert Heinlein quotes It is neither wealth nor splendor, but tranquility and occupation, that gives happiness. Thomas Jefferson quotes As the soil, however rich it may be, cannot be productive without cultivation, so the mind without culture can never produce good fruit. Seneca quotes It is more rewarding to watch money change the world than watch it accumulate. Gloria Steinem quotes To withhold deserved praise lest it should make its object conceited is as dishonest as to withhold payment of a just debt lest your creditor should spend the money badly. George Bernard Shaw quotes He does not possess wealth; it possesses him. Benjamin Franklin quotes Property may be destroyed and money may lose its purchasing power; but character, health, knowledge and good judgment will always be in demand under all conditions.
