Money doesn’t care who owns it. A bum can win it in a lottery, or a dunce can inherit it, or someone can get it by holding up a bank. But power – that’s something different. To have power is to own the world.
Money does not represent such a value as men have placed upon it. All my money has been invested into experiments with which I have made new discoveries enabling mankind to have a little easier life.
Money demands that you sell, not your weakness to men’s stupidity, but your talent to their reason.
Money can’t buy life.
Money can’t buy a species back once they are gone.
Money can run out, but talent is forever.
Money and power can liberate only if they are used to do so. They can imprison and inhibit more finally than barred windows and iron chains.
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.
Making money isn’t hard in itself. What’s hard is to earn it doing something worth devoting one’s life to.
Life is not about money, it’s about emotion.
It’s wonderful what money can do.
It’s hell when you’re too good to make money.
