Money is only a tool. It will take you wherever you wish, but it will not replace you as the driver.
Ayn Rand
Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
Jim Rohn
Simply by not owning three medium-sized castles in Tuscany I have saved enough money in the last forty years on insurance premiums alone to buy a medium-sized castle in Tuscany.
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
We go to school to learn to work hard for money. I write books and create products that teach people how to have money work hard for them.
Robert Kiyosaki
Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants.
Epictetus
Wealth often takes away chances from men as well as poverty. There is none to tell the rich to go on striving, for a rich man makes the law that hallows and hollows his own life.
Sean O’Casey
Too many people spend money they haven’t earned to buy things they don’t want to impress people they don’t like.
Will Rogers
An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.
Benjamin Franklin
Bottom line is, I didn’t return to Apple to make a fortune. I’ve been very lucky in my life and already have one. When I was 25, my net worth was $100 million or so. I decided then that I wasn’t going to let it ruin my life. There’s no way you could ever spend it all, and I don’t view wealth as something that validates my intelligence.
Steve Jobs
Everyone needs a certain amount of money. Beyond that, we pursue money because we know how to obtain it. We don’t necessarily know how to obtain happiness.
