We read to know that we are not alone.
An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.
Men do not understand books until they have a certain amount of life, or at any rate no man understands a deep book, until he has seen and lived at least part of its contents.
I cannot sleep unless I am surrounded by books.
If you live for having it all, what you have is never enough.
Get busy living or get busy dying.
Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants.
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.
