Wealth, in even the most improbable cases, manages to convey the aspect of intelligence.
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.
You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.
It is time for us to stand and cheer for the doer, the achiever, the one who recognizes the challenge and does something about it.
If we encounter a man of rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads.
The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.
Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?
The only important thing in a book is the meaning that it has for you.
