Never be a minion, always be an owner.

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

It is not according to my mode of doing things, to bring a suit against a man that I have the power in my own hands to punish.

I have been insane on the subject of money-making all my life.

I have always served the public to the best of my ability. Why? Because, like every other man, it is to my interest to do so.

There is no friendship in trade.

If I had learned education I would not have had time to learn anything else.
