I think that much of the advice given to young men about saving money is wrong. I never saved a cent until I was forty years old. I invested in myself - in study, in mastering my tools, in preparation. Many a man who is putting a few dollars a week into the bank would do much better to put it into himself.

Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it.

There is no disgrace in honest failure; there is disgrace in fearing to fail

If people understood how the economic system works, there'd be a revolution in a minute.

We teach children to save their money. As an attempt to counteract thoughtless and selfish expenditure, that has value. But it is not positive; it does not lead the child into the safe and useful avenues of self-expression or self-expenditure. To teach a child to invest and use is better than to teach him to save.

There is no such thing as no chance.
