I set out to work hard, not to get rich.

I cannot think of a more personally rewarding and appropriate use of wealth than to give while one is living - to personally devote oneself to meaningful efforts to improve the human condition. More importantly, today's needs are so great and varied that intelligent philanthropic support and positive interventions can have greater value and impact today than if they are delayed when the needs are greater.

There has to be a balance in life. A balance of business, family, and the opportunity to learn and teach.

When you've got the money, you spend it. When you've spent it all, let someone else get going and spend theirs.

I’m happy when what I’m doing is helping people and unhappy when what I’m doing isn’t helping people.

I cannot think of a more personally rewarding and appropriate use of wealth than to give while one is living.... Interventions have greater value and impact today than if they are delayed.
