        Quintus Horatius Flaccus   Best?

        Roger Babson   Best?

        Lord Thomson of Fleet   Best?

        Franklin P. Jones   Best?
  • Many years ago Rudyard Kipling gave an address at McGill University in Montreal. He said one striking thing which deserves to be remembered.

        Andrew Carnegie   Best?
  • There is not a flower or bird in sight, only a small screen on which lines are moving, while the child sits almost motionless, pushing at the keyboard with one finger. As a learning environment, it may be mentally rich, but it is perceptually extremely impoverished. No smells or tastes, no wind or bird song (unless the computer is programmed to produce electronic tweets), no connection with soil, water, sunlight, warmth, the actual learning environment is almost autistic in quality, impoverished sensually, emotionally, and socially.
        John Davy   Best?
  • The birthplace of success for each person is in his Inner-Consciousness. The Inner-Consciousness will use whatever it is given. If constructive thoughts are planted positive outcomes will be the result. Plant the seeds of failure and failure will follow. And since the only real freedom a person has is the choice of what thoughts he will feed to his Inner-Consciousness he is totally responsible for the outcomes he gets.
        Sidney Madwed   Best?

        Havelock Ellis   Best?
  • Good taste is the flower of good sense.
        A. Poincelot   Best?
  • How frequently are the honesty and integrity of a man disposed of by a smile or a shrug. How many good and generous actions have been sunk into oblivion by a distrustful look, or stamped with the imputation of bad motives, by a mysterious and seasonable whisper!
        Sterne   Best?
  • Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.
        Dwight D. Eisenhower   Best?
  • All our progress is an unfolding, like a vegetable bud. You have first an instinct, then an opinion, then a knowledge as the plant has root, bud, and fruit. Trust the instinct to the end, though you can render no reason.
        Ralph Waldo Emerson   Best?
  • Money cannot buy peace of mind. It cannot heal ruptured relationships, or build meaning into a life that has none.

  • Peace won by the compromise of principles is a short-lived achievement.
        Muriel Strode   Best?
  • Many people seem to think that opportunity means a chance to get money without earning it.
        Muriel Strode   Best?
  • Nature is not affected by finance. If someone offered you ten thousand dollars to let them touch your eyeball without blinking, you would never collect the money. At the very last moment, Nature would force you to blink your eye. Nature will protect her own.
        Dick Gregory   Best?
  • Men are more accountable for their motives, than for anything else; and primarily, morality consists in the motives, that is in the affections.
        Archibald Alexander   Best?
  • The way by which you may get money almost without exception leads downward.
        Henry David Thoreau   Best?
  • If a man is after money, he's money mad; if he keeps it, he's a capitalist; if he spends it, he's a playboy; if he doesn't get it, he's a ne'er-do-well; if he doesn't try to get it, he lacks ambition. If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life.
        Vic Oliver   Best?
  • The safest way to double your money is to fold over once and put it in your pocket.
        Kin [F. McKinney] Hubbard   Best?
  • If you make money your god, it will plague you like the devil.
        Henry Fielding   Best?
  • Money, which represents the prose of life, and which is hardly spoken of in parlors without an apology, is, in its effects and laws, as beautiful as roses.
        Ralph Waldo Emerson   Best?
  • Money never starts an idea; it is the idea that starts the money.
        W. J. Cameron   Best?

        Phineas Taylor Barnum   Best?
  • I don't believe in the goodness of disagreeable people.
        O. Dewey   Best?
  • Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough. Not only have I found that when I talk to the little flower or to the little peanut they will give up their secrets, but I have found that when I silently commune with people they give up their secrets also - if you love them enough.
        George Washington Carver   Best?
  • That laugther costs too much which is purchased by the sacrifice of decency.
        Quintilian   Best?
  • It is better to be a beggar than ignorant; for a beggar only wants money, but an ignorant person wants humanity.
        Aristippus   Best?
  • Men who accomplish great things in the industrial world are the ones who have faith in the money producing power of ideas.
        Charles Fillmore   Best?
  • It is often easier to fight for one's principles that to live up to them.
        Adlai E. Stevenson Jr.   Best?
  • The man of power is ruined by power, the man of money by money, the submissive man by subservience, the pleasure seeker by pleasure.
        Hermann Hesse   Best?
  • Honesty is a question of right or wrong, not a matter of policy.
        Muriel Strode   Best?
  • We must make the world honest before we can honestly say to our children that honesty is the best policy.
        George Bernard Shaw   Best?
  • Nothing more completely baffles one who is full of trick and duplicity than straigthforward and simple integrity in another. A knave would rather quarrel with a brother knave than with a fool, but he would rather avoid a quarrel with one honest man than with both. He can combat a fool by management and address, and he can conquer a knave by temptations. But the honest man is neither to be bamboozled nor bribed.
        Charles Caleb Colton   Best?
  • It was a grand trait of the old Roman that with him one and the same word meant both honor and honesty.
        Muriel Strode   Best?
  • Look to your health; and if you have it, praise God and value it next to a good conscience; for health is the second blessing that money cannot buy; therefore value it, and be thankful for it.
        Izaak Walton   Best?
