“If thou would estimate thyself, put away wealth, land, honors; scrutinize thyself within.”

Day's Collacon • Lucius Annaeus Seneca

“The price of greatness is responsibility.”

Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill

“No one knows how greatness comes to a man. It may lie in his blackness, sleeping, or it may lance into him like those driven fiery particles from outer space. These things, however, are known about greatness: need gives it life and puts it in action; it never comes without pain; it leaves a man changed, chastened, and exalted at the same time--he can never return to simplicity.”

Sweet Thursday • John Steinbeck

“Desire may reflect anything from a desperate need to a transitory want. In either case, wealth is anything that satisfies the craving. It applies balm to the itch. It may, in fact, gratify more than one desire at a time. We may want a touch of beauty on our living room wall. A painting, even an inexpensive reproduction, may provide a small surge of pleasure every time we pause to look at it. The same work of art may simultaneously fulfill our desire to impress visitors with our splendid good taste, or our social importance. But wealth can also be a bank account, a bicycle, a hoard of food or a health insurance policy.”

 Revolutionary Wealth • Alvin Toffler

“ "Have no friends not equal to yourself."”

The Analects of Confucius • Confucius
