Paul Ryan

Samuel Johnson

There are few ways in which a man can be more innocently employed than in getting money.

Samuel Goldwyn

But human nature dictates that there will always be cheaters. That's inevitable. Where there's money involved and glory, there are going to be people that cheat, and there will always be ways to cheat.

David Millar

I would prefer to have no money but to have a nice family and good friends around.

Atal Bihari Vajpayee

If you can actually count your money, then you're not a rich man.

J. Paul Getty

What we really want to do is what we are really meant to do. When we do what we are meant to do, money comes to us, doors open for us, we feel useful, and the work we do feels like play to us.

Julia Cameron

I'm proud to pay taxes in the United States the only thing is, I could be just as proud for half the money.

Arthur Godfrey

Those whose life is long still strive for gain, and for all mortals all things take second place to money.

Sophocles

I don't talk about money.

Robert Fulghum

It's very important that every movie I do makes money because I want the people that had the faith in me to get their money back.

Time is like money, the less we have of it to spare the further we make it go.

Josh Billings

I've had an exciting time I married for love and got a little money along with it.

Paul McCartney

All money is a matter of belief.

Adam Smith

I'm looking for backing for an unauthorized auto-biography that I am writing. Hopefully, this will sell in such huge numbers that I will be able to sue myself for an extraordinary amount of money and finance the film version in which I will play everybody.

David Bowie

A man who cannot be enticed by money or intimidated by the threat of jail or death has two of the strongest weapons that anyone has to offer.

Jesse Jackson

Taxation is just a sophisticated way of demanding money with menaces.

Terry Pratchett

A wise person should have money in their head, but not in their heart.

Jonathan Swift

If you are worried about job security and do not have an adequate emergency fund (ideally eight months' worth of living expenses stashed away in a federally insured bank or credit union), you need to focus more on saving money than paying down the balance on your credit cards.

No, not rich. I am a poor man with money, which is not the same thing.

I know of nothing more despicable and pathetic than a man who devotes all the hours of the waking day to the making of money for money's sake.

John D. Rockefeller

Neither soldiers nor money can defend a king but only friends won by good deeds, merit, and honesty.

Sallust

As long as you have a system that is based on the rational that if you are making money you are thereby making a contribution to society, these financial rogue practices will continue.

David Korten

A majority, perhaps as many as 75 percent, of abortion clinics are in areas with high minority populations. Abortion apologists will say this is because they want to serve the poor. You don't serve the poor, however, by taking their money to terminate their children.

Alveda King

If we think we have ours and don't owe any time or money or effort to help those left behind, then we are a part of the problem rather than the solution to the fraying social fabric that threatens all Americans.

Marian Wright Edelman

Knowledge is like money: the more he gets, the more he craves.

Josh Billings

I haven't got as much money as some folks, but I've got as much impudence as any of them, and that's the next thing to money.

Josh Billings

It ain't often that a man's reputation outlasts his money.

Josh Billings

William Makepeace Thackeray

Capitalism is using its money we socialists throw it away.

George Burns

You can be young without money but you can't be old without it.

Tennessee Williams

American men, as a group, seem to be interested in only two things, money and breasts. It seems a very narrow outlook.

Hedy Lamarr

I'm fulfilled in what I do. I never thought that a lot of money or fine clothes - the finer things of life - would make you happy. My concept of happiness is to be filled in a spiritual sense.

Coretta Scott King

It is a sad fact about our culture that a poet can earn much more money writing or talking about his art than he can by practicing it.

W. H. Auden

I've always said money may buy you a fine dog, but only love can make it wag its tail.

Kinky Friedman

A man must love a thing very much if he not only practices it without any hope of fame and money, but even... without any hope of doing it well.

Oliver Herford

A moderate addiction to money may not always be hurtful but when taken in excess it is nearly always bad for the health.

Clarence Day

Here's how I think of my money - as soldiers - I send them out to war everyday. I want them to take prisoners and come home, so there's more of them.

Kevin O'Leary

I know why most people never get rich. They put the money ahead of the job. If you just think of the job, the money will automatically follow. This never fails.

Hedy Lamarr

Well, the chairman of Federal Reserve just made his move to rescue Barack Obama. We're gonna have QE3. We're gonna print some more money.

Rush Limbaugh

Why are people unemployed? Because there is no work. Why is there no work? Because people are not buying products and services. Why are people not buying products and services? Because they have no money. Why do people have no money? Because they are unemployed.

Craig Bruce

I don't want to make money I want to make a difference.

Lady Gaga

Look, we know we screwed up when we were in the majority. We fell in love with power. We spent way too much money - especially on earmarks. There was too much corruption when we ran this place. We were guilty. And that's why we lost.

Eric Cantor

To keep the record straight, it wasn't always John and Yoko. We've all accused one another of various business things we tend to be pretty paranoid by now, as you can imagine. There's a lot of money involved.

Paul McCartney

People will always choose more money over more sex.

Doug Coupland

Almost the only persons who may be said to comprehend even approximately the significance, principles, and purposes of Socialism are the chief leaders of the extreme wings of the Socialistic forces, and perhaps a few of the money kings themselves.

Benjamin Tucker

Put not your trust in money, but put your money in trust.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

If you don't want my God here, you don't want me here either. God has been too good to me to go and try to sell out to get some money.

Tyler Perry

As they say around the Texas Legislature, if you can't drink their whiskey, screw their women, take their money, and vote against 'em anyway, you don't belong in office.

Molly Ivins

Nowadays nothing but money counts: a fortune brings honors, friendships the poor man everywhere lies low.

Ovid

Money is like manure. You have to spread it around or it smells.

J. Paul Getty

I'm not really religious but very spiritual. I give money to this company that manufactures hearing aids on a regular basis. More people should really hear me sing. I have a gift from God.

Christina Aguilera

Anyone who wants to sell you overnight success or wealth is not interested in your success they are interested in your money.

Bo Bennett

Look, I'm very much in favor of tax cuts, but not with borrowed money. And the problem that we've gotten into in recent years is spending programs with borrowed money, tax cuts with borrowed money, and at the end of the day that proves disastrous. And my view is I don't think we can play subtle policy here.

Alan Greenspan

Until we totally change the way we elect our leaders, until we remove private money from public campaigns, lying will be the de facto method of governance in this country.

Peter Schuyler

But there are too many people that make so much money at the cost of lives of other humans and for no reason but to make the money.

Lily Tomlin

Thinking in its lower grades, is comparable to paper money, and in its higher forms it is a kind of poetry.

Unfaithfulness in the keeping of an appointment is an act of clear dishonesty. You may as well borrow a person's money as his time.

Horace Mann

There's no money in poetry, but then there's no poetry in money, either.

Robert Graves

When I was waiting tables, washing dishes, or mowing lawns for money, I never thought of myself as stuck in some station in life. I was on my own path, my own journey, an American journey where I could think for myself, decide for myself, define happiness for myself.

Paul Ryan

I decided to pursue music, so I dropped out of school and I told my parents I didn't want any money from them. I got three jobs and I just hit the ground running.

Lady Gaga

A lot of people in the media, and some everyday people, really aren't in search of the truth. They're in search of something worse than that. Money, yeah. I think the media's the kind of a thing where the truth doesn't win, because it's no fun. The truth's no fun.

Jack White

If someone decides to be a musician now, it means because there is no hope of money at the end of it, it means they really want to be a musician. And if someone is writing now, there is no hope for money at the end of it.

Doug Coupland

I think money is due for some sort of collapse. People are going to realize that money has a half-life, like radioactive elements.

Doug Coupland

I am not a pig farmer. The pigs had a great time, but I didn't make any money.

Willie Nelson

Clearly this is a tough economic time, and a lot of families are hurting. So when we talk to parents, we talk about small changes for kids and things that don't cost extra money. Like adding water and eliminating sugary drinks and sodas. That's going to save money right there. Or adding a few more vegetables.

Michelle Obama

The idea that a congressman would be tainted by accepting money from private industry or private sources is essentially a socialist argument.

Newt Gingrich

If time is money, it seems moral to save time, above all one's own, and such parsimony is excused by consideration for others. One is straight-forward.

Theodor Adorno

Congress, the press, and the bureaucracy too often focus on how much money or effort is spent, rather than whether the money or effort actually achieves the announced goal.

Donald Rumsfeld

Presidential leadership needn't always cost money. Look for low- and no-cost options. They can be surprisingly effective.

Donald Rumsfeld

All I wanted to do was write - at the time, poems, and prose, too. I guess my ambition was simply to make money however I could to keep myself going in some modest way, and I didn't need much, I was unmarried at the time, no children.

Paul Auster

We at Chrysler borrow money the old-fashioned way. We pay it back.

Lee Iacocca

Of course, I do everything for money.

Christopher Hitchens

It was Public Art, defined as art that is purchased by experts who are not spending their own personal money.

Dave Barry

Money is the seed of money, and the first guinea is sometimes more difficult to acquire than the second million.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau

We do not have a money problem in America. We have a values and priorities problem.

Marian Wright Edelman

What I've learned is that you really don't need to be a celebrity or have money or have the paparazzi following you around to be famous.

Lady Gaga

Some artists are working to buy the mansion or whatever the element of fame must bear, but I spend all my money on my show.

Lady Gaga

I don't care about money.

Lady Gaga

The forties, seventies, and the nineties, when money was scarce, were great periods, when the art world retracted but it was also reborn.

Jerry Saltz

Money is something that can be measured art is not. It's all subjective.

Jerry Saltz

Art usually only makes the news in America when the subject is money.

Jerry Saltz

Not to say people shouldn't get rich from art. I adore the alchemy wherein artists who cast a complex spell make rich people give them their money. (Just writing it makes me cackle.) But too many artists have been making money without magic.

Jerry Saltz

One argument goes that recessions are good for female artists because when money flies out the window, women are allowed in the house. The other claims that when money ebbs, so do prospects for women.

Jerry Saltz

In the seventies, a group of American artists seized the means not of production but of reproduction. They tore apart visual culture at a time of no money, no market, and no one paying attention except other artists. Vietnam and Watergate had happened everything in America was being questioned.

Jerry Saltz

The last time money left the art world, intrepid types maxed out their credit cards and opened galleries, and a few of them have become the best in the world.

Jerry Saltz

Much good art got made while money ruled I like a lot of it, and hardship and poverty aren't virtues. The good news is that, since almost no one will be selling art, artists - especially emerging ones - won't have to think about turning out a consistent style or creating a brand. They'll be able to experiment as much as they want.

Jerry Saltz

When money and hype recede from the art world, one thing I won't miss will be what curator Francesco Bonami calls the 'Eventocracy.' All this flashy 'art-fair art' and those highly produced space-eating spectacles and installations wow you for a minute until you move on to the next adrenaline event.

Jerry Saltz

Untitled' is a time machine that can transport you to 1992, an edgy moment when the art world was crumbling, money was scarce, and artists like Tiravanija were in the nascent stages of combining Happenings, performance art, John Cage, Joseph Beuys, and the do-it-yourself ethos of punk. Meanwhile, a new art world was coming into being.

Jerry Saltz

Now people look at 'The Scream' or Van Gogh's 'Irises' or a Picasso and see its new content: money. Auction houses inherently equate capital with value.

Jerry Saltz

Art is for anyone. It just isn't for everyone. Still, over the past decade, its audience has hugely grown, and that's irked those outside the art world, who get irritated at things like incomprehensibility or money.

Jerry Saltz

I love art dealers. In some ways, they're my favorite people in the art world. Really. I love that they put their money where their taste is, create their own aesthetic universes, support artists, employ people, and do all of this while letting us see art for free. Many are visionaries.

Jerry Saltz

When museums are built these days, architects, directors, and trustees seem most concerned about social space: places to have parties, eat dinner, wine-and-dine donors. Sure, these are important these days - museums have to bring in money - but they gobble up space and push the art itself far away from the entrance.

Jerry Saltz

The people of this country, not special interest big money, should be the source of all political power.

Paul Wellstone

Many people are in the dark when it comes to money, and I'm going to turn on the lights.

Suze Orman

Take free money. No matter how in debt you are, if your employer offers a matching contribution on a 401(k) or other retirement vehicle, you must sign up and contribute enough to get the maximum company match each year. Think of it as a bonus.

Suze Orman

Growing up in a particular neighborhood, growing up in a working-class family, not having much money, all of those things fire you and can give you an edge, can give you an anger.

Gary Oldman

I think it would be cool if you were writing a ransom note on your computer, if the paper clip popped up and said, 'Looks like you're writing a ransom note. Need help? You should use more forceful language, you'll get more money.'

Demetri Martin

My Vegas act is how I make my money.

Rita Rudner

No woman marries for money they are all clever enough, before marrying a millionaire, to fall in love with him first.

Cesare Pavese

But all the money in the world cannot make you happy either, so there has to be a balance.

Heidi Klum

Making a movie requires 20 to 500 people to make and a lot of money and the stakes are a lot higher.

Alanis Morissette

Music has always been my back door to life. It is important for people to find something that excites them. I like the concept that if you do what excites you, you will be rewarded generously, whatever form reward takes, which is not necessarily money.

Brandon Boyd

I definitely spend the most money on shoes, partly because vintage footwear can be a little funky - in a bad way. I like to keep things pretty simple up top and then go weird with the shoes.

Chloe Sevigny

If there is no hell, a good many preachers are obtaining money under false pretenses.

Billy Sunday

Money is neither my god nor my devil. It is a form of energy that tends to make us more of who we already are, whether it's greedy or loving.

Dan Millman

In a very weak economy, when you say 'cut government spending,' what you mean is you're laying off school teachers and you're de-funding various programs that put money into the economy. This means you have more unemployed people that then draw unemployment benefits and don't pay taxes.

Fareed Zakaria

We need to reclaim our American system of limited government, low taxes, reasonable regulations, and sound money, which has blessed us with unprecedented prosperity. And it has done more to help the poor than any other economic system ever designed.

Paul Ryan

That's the real secret to job creation - not borrowing and spending more money in Washington.

Paul Ryan

We need to stop spending money we don't have.

Paul Ryan

What did the taxpayers get out of the Obama stimulus? More debt. That money wasn't just spent and wasted - it was borrowed, spent, and wasted.

Paul Ryan

A runner must run with dreams in his heart, not money in his pocket.

Emil Zatopek

I'm free of stress and worries now because if I don't like something I'm doing, I just find the fun in it instead of being miserable. Let me have fun with the people I work with, let me have fun making money - when I grew up so poor, ya know?

Jenny McCarthy

This is our commitment to users and the people who use our service, is that Facebook's a free service. It's free now. It will always be free. We make money through having advertisements and things like that.

Mark Zuckerberg

Is it not odd that the only generous person I ever knew, who had money to be generous with, should be a stockbroker.

Percy Bysshe Shelley

A development deal is where they're giving you recording time and money to record, but not promising that they'll put an album out.

Taylor Swift

I'm tired of love I'm still more tired of rhyme but money gives me pleasure all the time.

Hilaire Belloc

Money is the root of all evil, and yet it is such a useful root that we cannot get on without it any more than we can without potatoes.

Louisa May Alcott

Wal-Mart doesn't really care about your faith. Wal-Mart cares if you have money to spend, and it is going to be as generic as possible in exploiting the holiday season for every buck it can make.

Richard Roeper

Nowadays love is a matter of chance, matrimony a matter of money and divorce a matter of course.

Helen Rowland

Life is a game. Money is how we keep score.

Ted Turner

Jon Stewart is exactly the same guy he's always been, only with money. He knows that the moment he really believes he's important, the funny goes away and he becomes Bill O'Reilly, except shorter and Jewish.

Denis Leary

And of course I didn't make any money from stand up for years, so I had temp jobs. That was the way I made money.

Demetri Martin

They still have some money, and they have needs to supply. They must begin immediately to pool their earnings and organize industries to participate in supplying social and economic demands.

Carter G. Woodson

There are two kinds of power you have to fight. The first is the money, and that's just our system. The other is the people close around you, knowing when to accept their criticism, knowing when to say no.

Martin Scorsese

Work isn't to make money you work to justify life.

Marc Chagall

If we pollute the air, water and soil that keep us alive and well, and destroy the biodiversity that allows natural systems to function, no amount of money will save us.

David Suzuki

I pity the French Cinema because it has no money. I pity the American Cinema because it has no ideas.

Jean-Luc Godard

If you got the money honey I got the time and when you run out of money honey I run out of time.

Willie Nelson

When you hire that first person, then you're a boss. You've got performance reviews. You've got complaints about not making enough money. You've got people who are just going to sell your story to the tabloids.

Scott Adams

The only security men can have for their political liberty, consists in keeping their money in their own pockets.

Lysander Spooner

It can be liberating to get fired because you realize the world doesn't end. There's other ways to make money, better jobs.

Ron Livingston

Money couldn't buy friends, but you got a better class of enemy.

Spike Milligan

I don't really care about money. I find money boring and accounting boring, so I'm probably not going to ever make a lot of money.

Juliana Hatfield

The music business is motivated by money. Music is motivated by energy and feelings.

Erykah Badu

The flood of money that gushes into politics today is a pollution of democracy.

Theodore White

Spare no expense to save money on this one.

Samuel Goldwyn

Here I am paying big money to you writers and what for? All you do is change the words.

Samuel Goldwyn

The key to making money is to stay invested.

Suze Orman

A fool and her money are soon courted.

Helen Rowland

France is a place where the money falls apart in your hands but you can't tear the toilet paper.

Billy Wilder

Great dad. Yeah, he would ask me for money on birthdays and, you know, inappropriate times. And I just wrote him off like, 'You're not a father.' I just learned you cannot emotionally invest in people who are not attainable.

Drew Barrymore

Divorce is one of the most financially traumatic things you can go through. Money spent on getting mad or getting even is money wasted.

Richard Wagner

And, we have no such thing as a budget anymore. Our manager freaks when we show him the bill. We're lavish to the bone, but all our money goes back into the product.

Freddie Mercury

Labor was the first price, the original purchase - money that was paid for all things.

Adam Smith

My other family is Fleetwood Mac. I don't need the money, but there's an emotional need for me to go on the road again. There's a love there we're a band of brothers.

Stevie Nicks

Countries have lost their culture because what they wanted was money. Money became the running theme in every country and culture was sacrificed.

Yoko Ono

My generation will actually be the first generation that is tamer than the one that came before it, and it will probably be poorer less fun and less money.

Shia LaBeouf

Money and fame made me believe I was entitled. I was wrong and foolish.

Tiger Woods

I felt that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all the temptations around me. I felt I was entitled, and thanks to money and fame, I didn't have to go far to find them.

Tiger Woods

One thing that people keep on saying to me is that the wealth and the fame must have made up for missing out on my childhood. But the idea of money - putting a price on your childhood - is ridiculous. You will never get those years back and you can't put a price on them.

Tom Felton

I bought a lot of rubbish things that kids buy: skateboards and clothes and typical teenage stuff. And, as soon as I could, I wasted a lot of money on cars - BMW's mostly - for myself and my family.

Tom Felton

We are going as fast as we can as soon as we can. We're in a race against time, until we run out of money.

Jack Nicholson

The only point in making money is, you can tell some big shot where to go.

Humphrey Bogart

I am a liberated woman. And I do believe if a woman does equal work she should be paid equal money. But personally I am feminine and I do like male authority to lean on.

Julie Andrews

I never left France for Hollywood nor stashed my money in Switzerland.

Brigitte Bardot

As I have said for many years throughout this land, we're borrowing money from China to buy oil from the Persian Gulf to burn it in ways that destroy the future of human civilization. Every bit of that has to change.

Al Gore

I had more clothes than I had closets, more cars than garage space, but no money.

Sammy Davis, Jr.

Money is such an amazing teacher: What you choose to do with your money shows whether you are truly powerful or powerless.

Suze Orman

Having money is rather like being a blond. It is more fun but not vital.

Mary Quant

People assume I'm out there having this great life, but money doesn't erase the pain. When you're young you barrel through life, making choices without thinking of repercussions. A few years down the line, you wake up in a certain place and wonder how the hell you got there.

Jennifer Lopez

Money is in some respects life's fire: it is a very excellent servant, but a terrible master.

P. T. Barnum

It's our money, and we're free to spend it any way we please.

Rose Kennedy

I don't know what to do with it. I'm very fortunate to have it, and it gives you room to maneuver. But the main thing about having money is it means you don't have to worry about it. And that for me is a lovely thing. It's not for fast cars and hookers.

Daniel Radcliffe

I don't work very much, and I just sit here waiting for a script that I can't refuse - and I'm not talking about money.

Michael Caine

I decided I ought to pick a project that would not be controversial, that would not really cost the government a lot of money.

Only the elites despise earning money.

Newt Gingrich

If you put all your strength and faith and vigor into a job and try to do the best you can, the money will come.

Lawrence Welk

I've got my eye on a few things to spend my money on. I've got my own bank card but I am really good with money. I don't spend too much at all.

Justin Bieber

You have to spend a lot to make a lot. It's not like I'm sitting on top of a pile of money.

Katy Perry

As kids we didn't complain about being poor we talked about how rich we were going to be and made moves to get the lifestyle we aspired to by any means we could. And as soon as we had a little money, we were eager to show it.

Jay-Z

While money doesn't buy love, it puts you in a great bargaining position.

Christopher Marlowe

I became alienated from this religious upbringing, and started making music. I wanted to be a big star. All those things I saw in the films and on the media took hold of me, and perhaps I thought this was my god: the goal of making money.

Cat Stevens

France is the country where the money falls apart and you can't tear the toilet paper.

Billy Wilder

I think there's only one or two films where I've had all the financial support I needed. All the rest, I wish I'd had the money to shoot another ten days.

Martin Scorsese

Young film makers should learn how to deal with the money and learn how to deal with the power structure. Because it is like a battle.

Martin Scorsese

I don't understand the whole dating thing. I know right off the bat if I'm interested in someone, and I don't want them to waste their money on me and take me out to eat if I know I'm not interested in that person.

Britney Spears

My body can't put anyone in jeopardy of not making money anymore - my body is just not on the table that way anymore.

Christina Aguilera

There is nothing in socialism that a little age or a little money will not cure.

Will Durant

Starting out to make money is the greatest mistake in life. Do what you feel you have a flair for doing, and if you are good enough at it, the money will come.

Greer Garson

I know a lot of celebrities who are perfectly happy to put their name to something and then leave it at that because the money is good, but I need to have complete control over how something is going to look if my name is going to be attached to it.

Heidi Klum

To this day, I am the least materialistic person I know, because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car. The only reason I wanted to make money as an actor was because I'm passionate about food!

Hugh Jackman

They're very, uh, you know, I don't come from the suburbs and a jolly, Disney type of lifestyle. I come from something totally different. And they're cool and bare minimum so it's not always a money issue for me.

Shia LaBeouf

I turned down twelve films last year... Huge money films, but I had no respect for the writer or the work.

Shia LaBeouf

Arab leaders worry more about making money from the profits they get from oil and gas that they turn the other way when Lebanon is being destroyed right next to them. Their neighbours are being murdered, but they only make calculations for their own benefit.

Abu Bakar Bashir

At this point I have enough money to live 25 lifetimes. You couldn't spend the money I've accrued now.

Shia LaBeouf

My first car, I got it in an auction at my temple. It was an '86 Volvo that I got for 500 bucks, and then wound up throwing $10,000 into the stereo system and put TVs in the foot rests. It was the most ridiculous Volvo you'd ever seen, but I had never had money before and I was out of my mind.

Shia LaBeouf

You can't have bank holding companies acting as hedge funds. You can't have them taking a million-dollar pension plan for Joe Schmo the bus driver and treat it with the same risk appetite that you treat George Soros' pocket money. It's fundamentally ridiculous.

Shia LaBeouf

And you can't have a prosperous economy when the government is way overspending, raising tax rates, printing too much money, over regulating and restricting free trade. It just can't be done.

Arthur Laffer

Everybody gets everything handed to them. The rich inherit it. I don't mean just inheritance of money. I mean what people take for granted among the middle and upper classes, which is nepotism, the old-boy network.

Toni Morrison

Go miser go, for money sell your soul. Trade wares for wares and trudge from pole to pole, So others may say when you are dead and gone. See what a vast estate he left his son.

John Dryden

It takes no compromising to give people their rights. It takes no money to respect the individual. It takes no survey to remove repressions.

Harvey Milk

And I can tell you that history will back up what I'm about to say and that is that there is no government run by conservatives, Republicans, put whoever you want there, if you give government the opportunity to spend more money than it has, it will do it. It will do it every time.

Marco Rubio

Mitt Romney understands free enterprise, he has worked in it. He has seen companies succeed and he has seen them fail, too. He knows what people think about when they invest their money.

Marco Rubio

I have too much money invested in sweaters.

Bob Hope

I like to sing ballads the way Eddie Fisher does and the way Perry Como does. But the way I'm singing now is what makes the money.

Elvis Presley

Money is like hormones. It's just how you feel on any given day.

Janice Dickinson

But without a caring society, without each citizen voluntarily accepting the weight of responsibility, government is destined to grow even larger, taking more of your money, burrowing deeper into your lives.

Jeb Bush

Never work just for money or for power. They won't save your soul or help you sleep at night.

Marian Wright Edelman

I have no idea how much money I've got.

Daniel Radcliffe

People who have car collections - I never understood that. I always thought that was unnecessary. It's not beautiful, it's not creative. It's just showing how much money you've got.

Daniel Radcliffe

A rich man told me recently that a liberal is a man who tells other people what to do with their money.

Amiri Baraka

You're right on the money with that. We're all like detectives in life. There's something at the end of the trail that we're all looking for.

David Lynch

Save your money. You're going to need twice as much money in your old age as you think.

Michael Caine

I like my money right where I can see it... hanging in my closet.

Sarah Jessica Parker

That is why the analogy of stealing does not work. With a thief, we want to know how much money he stole, and from whom. With the artist it is not how much he took and from whom, but what he did with it.

Lukas Foss

Nothing that is God's is obtainable by money.

Tertullian

The companies that survive longest are the one's that work out what they uniquely can give to the world not just growth or money but their excellence, their respect for others, or their ability to make people happy. Some call those things a soul.

Charles Handy

A corporation's primary goal is to make money. Government's primary role is to take a big chunk of that money and give it to others.

Larry Ellison

I've never really had a hobby, unless you count art, which the IRS once told me I had to declare as a hobby since I hadn't made money with it.

Laurie Anderson

Money is just the poor man's credit card.

Marshall McLuhan

Money is a poor man's credit card.

Marshall McLuhan

If you really believe that you're making a difference and that you can leave a legacy of better schools and jobs and safer streets, why would you not spend the money? The objective is to improve the schools, bring down crime, build affordable housing, clean the streets - not to have a fair fight.

Michael Bloomberg

My dad would give me $10, which is a lot of money when you're 9, to sing at church, on tables at restaurants, at family functions, just about anywhere.

Katy Perry

Hollywood is so fake and people need to realize that people are just people, and you, too, don't need to be born into something or have money or have whatever product someone is hawking on you.

Katy Perry

I think that what went wrong with religion is the same thing that went wrong with politics. Is that it became too money based and too controlling. It's just a weakness that we human beings have for control - we want one thing and then we want more and then we want more.

Dave Davies

What white man can say I never stole his land or a penny of his money? Yet they say that I am a thief.

Sitting Bull

Drug prohibition has caused gang warfare and other violent crimes by raising the prices of drugs so much that vicious criminals enter the market to make astronomical profits, and addicts rob and steal to get money to pay the inflated prices for their drugs.

Michael Badnarik

People spend time worrying about things they think they have to have and lose perception of what they do have. You can have all the money and material things you want. If you aren't here to enjoy them, what good do they do?

Eric Davis

There is nothing inherently fair about equalizing incomes. If the government penalizes you for working harder than somebody else, that is unfair. If you save your money but retire with the same pension as a free-spending neighbor, that is also unfair.

Arthur C. Brooks

I don't need the money, dear. I work for art.

Maria Callas

Bankers know that history is inflationary and that money is the last thing a wise man will hoard.

Will Durant

It's a sad fact about our culture that a poet can earn much more money writing or talking about his art than he can by practicing it.

W. H. Auden

The class distinctions proper to a democratic society are not those of rank or money, still less, as is apt to happen when these are abandoned, of race, but of age.

W. H. Auden

The only way not to think about money is to have a great deal of it.

Edith Wharton

I wanted to make a living, but I really was not interested in money at all. I was interested in being a great comedian.

Larry David

I still think of that guy I was without a wife or kids, and I still want to entertain that guy. The lonely guy, the frustrated guy, the guy with no money - this is the guy who needs to laugh.

Larry David

The extravagant expenditure of public money is an evil not to be measured by the value of that money to the people who are taxed for it.

Chester A. Arthur

I think that lawyers are terrible at admitting that they're wrong. And not just admitting it also realizing it. Most lawyers are very successful, and they think that because they're making money and people think well of them, they must be doing everything right.

Alan Dershowitz

You got to have a courageous president to stand up and says, listen, if - if you send a bill to me that spends more money than what we've coming in, I'll veto it. I mean, I'm going to try to work with you the best I can, but I'm going to veto it.

Rick Perry

If you wake up deciding what you want to give versus what you're going to get, you become a more successful person. In other words, if you want to make money, you have to help someone else make money.

Russell Simmons

To get rich, you have to be making money while you're asleep.

David Bailey

I would like to see more airplay for all artists, no matter what age. I think there's a lot of money being spent toward the young guys, but a lot of the older guys are the ones who blazed the trail for those young guys.

Willie Nelson

Making money is not gonna change anything about what I am, except I won't answer the door.

Abel Ferrara

I think that money spoils most things, once it becomes the primary motivating force.

John Cleese

I don't care half so much about making money as I do about making my point, and coming out ahead.

Cornelius Vanderbilt

Often people attempt to live their lives backwards they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier.

Margaret Young

The less money you owe, the less income you'll need and the less you'll have to save for tomorrow.

Suze Orman

When I saw all those other drivers, I realized that they wanted to win that money just as much as I did. But I didn't have to worry. A tire came off my car and I was lucky I got it off the track.

Buck Baker

Who would you want to be giving you advice? Somebody who doesn't have any money?

Suze Orman

The foundation of a financial fresh start actually has nothing to do with money or specific financial dos and don'ts.

Suze Orman

The first requisite of a sound monetary system is that it put the least possible power over the quantity or quality of money in the hands of the politicians.

Henry Hazlitt

There is something fundamentally unfair about a government that takes away so much of people's money, power, and personal control while telling them that life will be better as a result.

Steve Forbes

Nobody climbs mountains for scientific reasons. Science is used to raise money for the expeditions, but you really climb for the hell of it.

Edmund Hillary

When I sent those scripts, that was the lowest point of my life. We'd just had our second son, and when I went to collect them from hospital, I went to the bank to try and get some money to buy some diapers, the screen showed I've got $26 left.

Ang Lee

I don't like begging money from producers.

David Byrne

Expensive clothes are a waste of money.

Meryl Streep

Hussein has chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies.

Madeleine Albright

Geez, all that money we waste on space exploration just think how many bombs that would buy!

Craig Bruce

I think when money starts to corrupt journalism, it undermines the journalism, and it undermines the credibility of the product, and you end up not succeeding.

Walter Isaacson

What's my motto when it comes to money? Don't put so much emphasis on it!

Janice Dickinson

As I have traveled throughout my Congressional district, the one thing I heard loud and clear was simply please stop spending money you do not have, rein in spending, live within a budget.

Tim Scott

The biases the media has are much bigger than conservative or liberal. They're about getting ratings, about making money, about doing stories that are easy to cover.

Al Franken

Money, if it does not bring you happiness, will at least help you be miserable in comfort.

Helen Gurley Brown

Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesn't thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. I'm just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasn't paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing.

Lionel Messi

President Obama has outsourced a major portion of the U.S. space program to the Russians. That's national policy. Taxpayer money. So let's stop playing games with this outsourcing distortion and talk about the fact that when we need is a president that knows how to manage big enterprise and create jobs.

John Sununu

Money isn't a major motivating force in my life. Nor is my profession. There are other things that I care more about than being an actor.

Kevin Costner

Ridiculous yachts and private planes and big limousines won't make people enjoy life more, and it sends out terrible messages to the people who work for them. It would be so much better if that money was spent in Africa - and it's about getting a balance.

Richard Branson

From paying off friends' tax bills to rescuing stray dogs and stuffing &pound20 notes into the hands of homeless people, I can't get rid of my money fast enough.

Julie Burchill

Billions are wasted on ineffective philanthropy. Philanthropy is decades behind business in applying rigorous thinking to the use of money.

Michael Porter

As a child, I wanted only two things - to be left alone to read my library books, and to get away from my provincial hometown and go to London to be a writer. And I always knew that when I got there, I wanted to make loads of money.

Julie Burchill

They say Yogi Berra is funny. Well, he has a lovely wife and family, a beautiful home, money in the bank, and he plays golf with millionaires. What's funny about that?

Casey Stengel

We are used to female writers who use their private lives as unmitigated material being somewhat hormonal this somehow 'excuses' what might be seen as a highly unfeminine ability to turn their personal upsets into money.

Julie Burchill

The money I pay for my cultural experiences came willingly from my own pocket - they were not the result of bread being removed from the mouths of the poor so that Miss Thing here could mince off to the circus smelling of roses.

Julie Burchill

I grew up in a really small town with not a lot of money, and I liked singing, but it was just something that was a hobby.

Justin Bieber

I'm so touched that complete strangers will send me a script asking me to be in their film. That still amazes me - and sometimes for a lot of money too.

Liam Neeson

You can get rich making fun of me. I know. I've made lots of money making fun of me.

Glenn Beck

I hesitate to deposit money in a bank. I am afraid I shall never dare to take it out again. When you go to confession and entrust your sins to the safe-keeping of the priest, do you ever come back for them?

Jean Baudrillard

Crafts make us feel rooted, give us a sense of belonging and connect us with our history. Our ancestors used to create these crafts out of necessity, and now we do them for fun, to make money and to express ourselves.

Phyllis George

And also there wasn't much money in television in those days anyhow.

Jim Henson

When you ain't got no money, you gotta get an attitude.

Richard Pryor

Money makes your life easier. If you're lucky to have it, you're lucky.

Al Pacino

The money that goes into Social Security is not the government's money. it's your money. You paid for it.

Mitch McConnell

Prosperity is a way of living and thinking, and not just money or things. Poverty is a way of living and thinking, and not just a lack of money or things.

Eric Butterworth

Preoccupation with money is the great test of small natures, but only a small test of great ones.

Nicolas Chamfort

There's so much importance in honoring your everyday hero. It doesn't take money. It doesn't take connections. What matters is that people get involved. Whether your passion is gun control or food or whatever it may be, everybody needs to stop being so self-absorbed.

Debi Mazar

I have a lot of money stashed away, but I do live my life from day to day.

Elton John

A transfer of money should never be involved in this profound situation. Although illness is profound, too, but medicine's a business today. It's a business.

Jack Kevorkian

Always remember, money isn't everything - but also remember to make a lot of it before talking such fool nonsense.

Earl Wilson

False opinions are like false money, struck first of all by guilty men and thereafter circulated by honest people who perpetuate the crime without knowing what they are doing.

Joseph de Maistre

Where are the jobs going to come from?Small business, manufacturing and clean energy. Where's the money to finance them? The banks and the corporations in America today have lots of money that they can invest right now.

William J. Clinton

If you make money your god, it will plague you like the devil.

Henry Fielding

The financial reward is great and I love the life I have, but all money makes possible is for you to stop worrying about money. Then you have freedom to live your life.

Paul Stanley

As Americans, we realize that there is no taxpayer money that wasn't first earned through the sweat and toil of one of our citizens.

Rick Perry

I mean, Dodd-Frank is strangling small community banks. It doesn't make any difference what the interest rate is. They're not - they're not going to loan the money because they can't make any money for one thing plus the cost of compliance.

Rick Perry

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

You have reached the pinnacle of success as soon as you become uninterested in money, compliments, or publicity.

Thomas Wolfe

Unfortunately, corruption is widespread in government agencies and public enterprises. Our political system promotes nepotism and wasting money. This has undermined our legal system and confidence in the functioning of the state. One of the consequences is that many citizens don't pay their taxes.

Georgios A. Papandreou

It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.

George Horace Lorimer

The problem is that borrowing money to pay back more borrowed money that will oblige you in the future to borrow even more money doesn't sound kosher. Because it isn't.

John Podhoretz

I admire directors so much, I find them incredible: they manage such a huge number of people of different characters, think of the money involved.

Catherine Deneuve

They got married, they got divorced, and half their money goes out the window.

Suze Orman

I always say, 'People first, then money, then things.'

Suze Orman

If you wait until your children are high school seniors to spring it on them that there's not a whole lot of money for school, they won't have too many options.

Suze Orman

Your goal should be to pay off your credit card bills in full at the end of each month and set aside money toward your emergency savings.

Suze Orman

Those carrying a credit card balance should scale back to making the minimum payment each month so they have more money to put into savings.

Suze Orman

I get so frustrated when people tell me it's unrealistic to create an eight-month emergency savings fund, or have money saved for a home down payment, or pay off their $5,000 credit card balance.

Suze Orman

The last thing family and friends want is for you to spend money on them that you don't have or that you can't really spare.

Suze Orman

I think I'm actually quite a materialistic person, I value what it takes to make a car or build a nice house. Money does change things, but how it changes people depends on how they react to it.

Roland Gift

If you're not staying on top of your money, you are putting your financial well-being at risk.

Suze Orman

Never, ever invest money that you will need prior to three to five years - minimum.

Suze Orman

To make the most of your money, I recommend sticking with mutual funds that don't charge a commission when you buy or sell.

Suze Orman

I have long been one of those tedious people who rails against the coronation of 'student-athletes.' I have heard the argument that big-time athletics bring in loads of money to universities. I don't believe the money goes anywhere other than back into the sports teams, but that's another story.

Susan Orlean

At one time there were voiceover artists, now there are celebrity voiceover artists. It's unfortunate because these people need the money less than the voiceover artist.

David Duchovny

If there's something that can be formulated, regulated, give you security, then nobody would lose money. Every movie would be successful. And that's certainly not the case.

Ang Lee

Sensitivity and money are like parallel lines. They don't meet.

Ang Lee

Soon we saw that money going to women brought much more benefit to the family than money going to the men. So we changed our policy and gave a high priority to women. As a result, now 96% of our four million borrowers in Grameen Bank are women.

Muhammad Yunus

What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy. And joy is, after all, the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money.

George Leigh Mallory

Up against the corporate government, voters find themselves asked to choose between look-alike candidates from two parties vying to see who takes the marching orders from their campaign paymasters and their future employers. The money of vested interest nullifies genuine voter choice and trust.

Ralph Nader

In my opinion MS is a lot better at making money than it is at making good operating systems.

Linus Torvalds

I made a small fortune. I made a lot of money and I made a lot of other people wealthy.

Jim Cramer

The nice thing about the gallery shows is that without having to pay any money you can just go and see it.

Yoko Ono

Three groups spend other people's money: children, thieves, politicians. All three need supervision.

Dick Armey

First and foremost I am a drummer. After that, I'm other things... But I didn't play drums to make money.

Ringo Starr

I don't want young people to think they can't make a difference because they don't have money.

Kesha

Financially, I've lost money and made money, but I know my way around financially.

Jack Nicholson

I don't think anybody cares about unwed mothers unless they're black or poor. The question is not morality, the question is money. That's what we're upset about.

Toni Morrison

There are probably several hundred thousand if we narrow the definition to include only those who in their search for money and power are ruthless and deceitful.

Henry A. Wallace

People don't have fortunes left them in that style nowadays men have to work and women to marry for money. It's a dreadfully unjust world.

Louisa May Alcott

And I think the more money you put in people's hands, the more they will spend. And if they don't spend it, they invest it. And investing it is another way of creating jobs. It puts money into mutual funds or other kinds of banks that can go out and make loans, and we need to do that.

Michael Bloomberg

I'm a dad, and I no longer see a way for my kids to even inherit the money that I'm making, let alone go out there, have an idea, and create it in their own lifetime.

Glenn Beck

If it is wrong for you to take money from someone else who earned it, to take their money by force for your own needs, then it is certainly just as wrong for you to demand that the government step forward and do this dirty work for you.

Neal Boortz

For my scale, how I grew up and live my life, I'm making plenty of money.

Louis C. K.

Get a Job' is about all the rich kids we knew when we were younger, kids who never had jobs but always had money for partying or getting their hair done.

Beth Ditto

I never viewed money as being 'my money' I always saw it as 'the money.' It's a resource. If it pools up around me then it needs to be flushed back out into the system.

Louis C. K.

I've had people ask me in interviews what it's like to have money, but that's not how it is. I have a middle-class life. I have a room in London but not a house, nor a BMW.

Beth Ditto

The people who run a university are far more qualified and intelligent in handling people than someone who inherited his money and used it to buy a pro team.

Hayden Fry

For me the greatest source of income is still movies. Nothing - stocks, financial speculation, real estate speculation or businesses - makes more money for me than making movies.

Jackie Chan

I don't know what your childhood was like, but we didn't have much money. We'd go to a movie on a Saturday night, then on Wednesday night my parents would walk us over to the library. It was such a big deal, to go in and get my own book.

Robert Redford

A firm, for instance, that does business in many countries of the world is driven to spend an enormous amount of time, labour, and money in providing for translation services.

Edward Sapir

Banks are an almost irresistible attraction for that element of our society which seeks unearned money.

J. Edgar Hoover

Selling out is doing something you don't really want to do for money. That's what selling out is.

Bono

Goddam money. It always ends up making you blue as hell.

J. D. Salinger

Money just draws flies.

Mahalia Jackson

For those who are able to work, work has to be seen as the best route out of poverty. For work is not just about more money - it is transformative. It's about taking responsibility for yourself and your family.

Iain Duncan Smith

Money is a good thing and it's obviously useful, but to work only for money or fame would never interest me.

Annie Lennox

The only thing I like more than my wife is my money, and I'm not about to lose that to her and her lawyers, that's for damn sure.

Jon Bon Jovi

Things are done according to money these days.

Shirley MacLaine

Our American friends offer us money, arms, and advice. We take the money, we take the arms, and we decline the advice.

Moshe Dayan

For industry to settle in a country, you first need electricity for electricity, you need some trained workers for trained workers, you need some schools for schools you need some money for money, you need some industry.

Evan Davis

A survey carried out across the U.S. between 2004 and 2006 showed that frequent church- or synagogue-goers are more likely to give money to charity.

Jonathan Sacks

If the money's right, I'll do a film.

Oliver Reed

You can spend the money on new housing for poor people and the homeless, or you can spend it on a football stadium or a golf course.

Jello Biafra

I sat with him for three hours and we did not exchange a single word. At the end he handed me, as he had done before, an envelope with money in it. It would have been much nicer if he had enclosed a greeting or a loving word. I would have been so pleased if he had.

Eva Braun

You must spend money to make money.

Plautus

So, my happiness doesn't come from money or fame. My happiness comes from seeing life without struggle.

Nicki Minaj

Abraham Lincoln comes from nothing, has no education, no money, lives in the middle of nowhere on the frontier. And despite the fact that he suffers one tragedy and one setback after another, through sheer force of will, he becomes something extraordinary: not only the president but the person who almost single-handedly united the country.

Seth Graham-Smith

I know where I'm putting my money.

Marc Andreessen

While teaching, I also worked undercover in the lower courts by saying I was a young law teacher wanting experience in criminal law. The judges were happy to assist me but what I learned was how corrupt the lower courts were. Judges were accepting money right in the courtroom.

Samuel Dash

Money, again, has often been a cause of the delusion of the multitudes. Sober nations have all at once become desperate gamblers, and risked almost their existence upon the turn of a piece of paper.

Charles Mackay

I don't even know what sound is, much less what it's for. It isn't to make money that's for sure. I've never made any.

Don Van Vliet

To buy very good wine nowadays requires only money. To serve it to your guests is a sign of fatigue.

William F. Buckley, Jr.

I have long believed taxpayers make better use of their money than the government ever could.

Kay Bailey Hutchison

I've been very well remunerated for my talents over the years so I really don't need the public's money.

George Michael

I'm glad I was born when I was. My time was the golden age of variety. If I were starting out again now, maybe things would happen for me, but it certainly would not be on a variety show with 28 musicians, 12 dancers, two major guest stars, 50 costumes a week by Bob Mackie. The networks just wouldn't spend the money today.

Carol Burnett

Writing is the only profession where no one considers you ridiculous if you earn no money.

Jules Renard

Money doesn't buy class.

Kiana Tom

I'm not broke. Like everybody else, I owe money.

Marlee Matlin

I find it fascinating that a lot of business books that do well are from people who've never made any money in business.

Gary Vaynerchuk

North Americans as a whole need to embrace having clothes altered to their body. I hear it all the time: why do the Europeans always look so good? They have a relationship with their tailor and spend the time and money to make their clothes look their best.

Michael Kors

I'm concerned a little bit with the culture of celebrating the fundraise. My dad taught me that when you borrow money it's the worst day of your life.

Gary Vaynerchuk

Even though I'm a hype man myself, I like the practicality of it all. People who understand how to turn a profit. At the end of the day, this is still business so I'm looking for real practical knowledge of how to actually make money, not necessarily raise it.

Gary Vaynerchuk

There are three reasons for becoming a writer: the first is that you need the money the second that you have something to say that you think the world should know the third is that you can't think what to do with the long winter evenings.

Quentin Crisp

That money talks, I'll not deny, I heard it once: It said, 'Goodbye'.

Richard Armour

People are chasing cash, not happiness. When you chase money, you're going to lose. You're just going to. Even if you get the money, you're not going to be happy.

Gary Vaynerchuk

Well, I needed the work - that's the honest answer. I haven't worked for a while, a couple of years. So I thought it would be nice to get back to work and earn some money.

Gary Oldman

I want to sit with 80- and 90-year-old people more than anyone. They have played this game before. Not one of them has told me, 'I wish I had more money.'

Gary Vaynerchuk

I remember thinking that I'd way rather give my parents my money, and not have to like have them go to work anymore, you know what I mean. Because I'd way rather spend more time with them.

Shaun White

It's lovely to have money to give away - that's the bonus of winning the Nobel.

Doris Lessing

You want to give people a reason to hate my guts more? I'm making more money.

Billy Joel

When I was 19, I made my first good week's pay as a club musician. It was enough money for me to quit my job at the factory and still pay the rent and buy some food. I freaked.

Billy Joel

Don't make music for some vast, unseen audience or market or ratings share or even for something as tangible as money. Though it's crucial to make a living, that shouldn't be your inspiration. Do it for yourself.

Billy Joel

People aren't going to throw the kind of money at certain people that they used to.

Philip Seymour Hoffman

When I was in N.W.A. and didn't get paid all the money I was owed, that's when the business side of showbiz hit me.

Ice Cube

Organized labor, if they're doing a responsible job, is going to organize the pooling of small amounts of money to protect the interests of the people who are not rich.

Warren Beatty

I actually think that the economy has got some positives. It's got the market. It's got consumer confidence and it's got banks throwing - I mean central bankers throwing money at it around the world.

Jack Welch

Fame does lead to money, which I don't have a close relationship with. I'm the kind of guy who never sees the money - it all goes somewhere else. I don't understand it, I don't like to deal with it. I have a fear of not having it, because I grew up without it.

David Duchovny

I just spend my money on the essentials. Just basically food and shelter.

David Duchovny

I don't make decisions based on money.

David Duchovny

My story is the story of countless millions of children whose families and nations were torn apart for money in the name of Jesus Christ.

Sinead O'Connor

It's rather naive, apart from being ethically objectionable, to assume that our investigators travel around the country with bags of money trying to bribe witnesses to lie on the witness stand. We just don't operate that way.

Jim Garrison

I don't have more money. I won't have more money than any of the candidates, even the Republican candidates. We know that already. But we are building this campaign team like I would build a business. And that is, we are building it so far with no debt.

Herman Cain

What saddens me is the corruption of youth and beauty, and the loss of soul, which is only replaced by money.

Lisa Bonet

Human beings are much bigger than just making money.

Muhammad Yunus

People really feel that, when they go to the gas pump now, that the oil cartel is holding them by the legs and tipping them upside down and shaking money out of their pockets.

Ed Markey

Our public school system is our country's biggest and most inefficient monopoly, yet it keeps demanding more and more money.

Phyllis Schlafly

Let us face it: in the world today, money and economic strength remain more powerful arguments than the number of people you represent.

Guy Verhofstadt

I'm not overly alarmist about it, but I do think there are some worrying signs, like the growing accumulation of wealth by a very small proportion of the population, plus elections in the US are much more dominated by money than anywhere else calling itself a democracy.

Peter Singer

I choose films for their artistic value. I don't need a mansion or a Jaguar. When I leave this Earth, I won't take any money with me. All I will leave behind will be my art.

Brad Renfro

We have a new generation of very rich people who want to do more with their money than buy a lot of expensive toys. They want to live meaningful lives.

Peter Singer

There is a basic lesson on financial crises that governments tend to wait too long, underestimate the risks, want to do too little. And it ultimately gets away from them, and they end up spending more money, causing much more damage to the economy.

Timothy Geithner

The United States is the only power in history that became great by giving and not by taking. I think the crisis was when the United States had more money than ideas. Money doesn't produce money. Ideas produce money.

Shimon Peres

Leslie Banks

I've seen so many people in this business that made a fortune. They get old and broke and can't make any money. I tell you something... no one's going to play a benefit for Jimmy Dean.

Jimmy Dean

I do not understand how it is that financial institutions could think that they could take taxpayer money and then turn around and act like it's business as usual. I don't understand how they can't see that the world has changed in a fundamental way, that it is not business as usual when you take taxpayer dollars.

Elayne Boosler

The guy keeps making speeches about redistribution and maybe we ought to do something to businesses that don't invest, their holding too much money.

Kesha

I give lectures for money, but all the money goes to charity. So, I make no money from it.

R. Lee Ermey

Arthur Miller

You know, if you look back in the 1930s, the money went to infrastructure. The bridges, the municipal buildings, the roads, those were all built with stimulus money spent on infrastructure. This stimulus bill has fundamentally gone, started out with a $500 rebate check, remember. That went to buy flat-screen TVs made in China.

Michael Bloomberg

If Warren Buffett made his money from ordinary income rather than capital gains, his tax rate would be a lot higher than his secretary's. In fact a very small percentage of people in this country pay a big chunk of the taxes.

Jon Meacham

To be honest, I've always had far too much freedom. I had a job when I was 10. I started living on my own when I was 17 or 18. I've earned my own money I've traveled the world. What would I rebel against?

Kathleen Turner

Carly Fiorina

We need more transparency and accountability in government so that people know how their money is being spent. That means putting budgets online, putting legislation online.

James Buchan

To give money to a woman - and here I must speak as a man - is to deny her special quality, her irreplaceability, and reduce her unique amiability to a commodity. Money takes away her name, while transforming her lover into a nameless customer of a market of appetites.

Angus Young

Thankfully, due to the United Kingdom and the commitment of the Westminster government we are able to ensure that money brought in, whether it be from the City of London or from North Sea oil, can be pooled and directed to wherever it is needed most.
