Money is power, and you ought to be reasonably ambitious to have it.

Your diamonds are not in far distant mountains or in yonder seas; they are in your own backyard, if you but dig for them.

Money is power. Every good man and woman ought to strive for power, to do good with it when obtained. I say, get rich, get rich!

Money is power, money is force, money will do good as harm. In the hands of good men and women it could accomplish, and it has accomplished, good.

I ask not for a larger garden, but for finer seeds.

Let every man or woman here remember this, that if you wish to be great at all, you must begin where you are and with what you are. He who would be great anywhere must first be great in his own Philadelphia.

You can journey to the ends of the earth in search of success, but if you’re lucky, you will discover happiness in your own backyard.
