Quotes

Many people take no care of their money till they come nearly to the end of it, and others do just the same with their time.

Wealth is not his that has it, but his that enjoys it.

Happiness is not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.

Money is only a tool. It will take you wherever you wish, but it will not replace you as the driver.

Money was never a big motivation for me, except as a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game.

Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?

Finance is not merely about making money. It's about achieving our deep goals and protecting the fruits of our labor. It's about stewardship and, therefore, about achieving the good society.

It's how you deal with failure that determines how you achieve success.
