There are many things that money cannot buy. One of them is human decency.

Money can rot people from the inside out.

I respect people who achieve things on the merits of their own hard work, skill, dedication, discipline and self-denial.

Be the person you are, succeed the best way you can and take pride in what you achieve.

Is it weakness that inspires a person to elevate their mind above the crowd and seek a different path? On the contrary. That is strength.

Our society at large has lost its ability to distinguish between opinion and fact, and between a threat and an opinion.

Real saints are rare to be found in the world, but there are plenty of sinners to go around—you know plenty of them, and if you’re honest, you’re probably one of them. So don’t fall for cheap lines like: “Our side is all good, and theirs is totally evil!” Real life is a lot more complex than that.

View your hard situation as a challenge and gain strength.
