Whoever decides to hate others has chosen to walk alone.

You think what you see in poor countries is poverty? No. What you really see is very poor states of mind, poor values, poor awareness, poor compassion, poor empathy, poor moral and a poor ethic. Poverty, as in lack of money, is just a consequence of all those things.

You will not know the purpose of life until you imagine a better one for someone else; You will not know the purpose of money until you work for someone else; You will not know the value of freedom until someone takes it away from you; You will not see until blindness keeps you hurt; You will not understand until ignorance causes you frustration; You will not be religious until you realize how God's laws are independent of His conscience.

Who's poorer, the one who begs for money or those who have not enough to give away? Or are they reflecting one another and the same nature?

I take from the poor and give to the rich. They just happen to be the same individuals. Poor and stupid before they learn from me and pay with their time and money, but rich and successful after they do. The truly miserable, however, don't know how poor they are, and I want nothing from them.

My decision isn't as important as the freedom to decide. And my income isn't as important as what I do to earn it.

Planet Earth has rules that can’t be broken, no matter how rich or poor you are. You either have a nine to five job, you’re an artist constantly producing art, you’re a businessman, or you stay home cleaning and taking care of children. And no matter if you’re a man or a woman, the same rule applies to you. You break it, and life breaks you.

Poor people can't understand this: It's not what you do that creates a fortune, but who you are.

Differences about poor and rich people: Poor people ask me where's my money from; Rich people invite me for a coffee and never ask it.
