I am not impressed with what people own. But I’m impressed with what they achieve. I’m proud to be a physician. Always strive to be the best in your field…. Don’t chase money. If you are the best in your field, money will find you.

Building a business is like building a home. If the foundation rests on an unstable setting or is constructed with subpar materials, it doesn't matter if the rest of the home is perfect. It will never be a joy to its owner

Money should never change one’s values…. Making money is only a report card. It’s a way to tell how you’re doing.

It’s easier to accumulate wealth if you don’t live in a high-status neighborhood.
