Never lose interest in life and the world. Never allow yourself to become annoyed.

I have ways of making money that you know nothing of.

My mother was given to a typical question: "We have always done this. Why should we do anything else?" But my wife's typical question was "We have always done this. Why don't we do it another way or, better still, why not do something else?"

I believe that thrift is essential to well-ordered living.

When a man has accumulated a sum of money, accumulated it within the law, the Government has no right to share in its earnings.

Never think you need to apologize for asking someone to give to a worthy cause, any more than as though you were giving him or her an opportunity to participate in a high-grade investment. The duty of giving is as much his or hers as is the duty of asking yours.

I shall use such influence as I have in emphasizing the basic truths common to all denominations, in lowering denominational barriers and in promoting effective cooperation among Christians of whatever creed.
