If you need a machine and don't buy it, then you will ultimately find that you have paid for it and don't have it.

Gold is the most useless thing in the world. I am not interested in money but in the things of which money is merely a symbol.

Records can be destroyed if they do not suit the prejudices of ruling cliques, lost if they become incomprehensible, distorted if a copyist wishes to impose a new meaning upon them, misunderstood if we lack the information to interpret them. The past is like a huge library, mostly fiction.

We are always seeking for those things which are in the clouds, not for those that lie at our feet.

The only true test of values, either of men or of things, is that of their ability to make the world a better place in which to live.

Money doesn't make us anyway it just unmasks us.
