Never say you cannot afford something. That is a poor man's attitude. Ask HOW to afford it.
I'm not rich and maybe I'll never be rich. Money is useful - yes - but I don't worship it.
The person who said money is the root of all evil just flat out didn't have any.
I really don't like talking about money. All I can say is that the Good Lord must have wanted me to have it.
We may love money without having it, just as we may have money without loving it.
I read in the papers how much I'm earning and fall about laughing because I'm sure it's not that much; otherwise, I'd have an enormous boat. I'm literally not the slightest bit interested in money. I just don't pay any attention to money; it's rather vulgar.
I don't believe in simply accumulating money, but I have the luxury to say that, because I have enough for all my needs.
Make money, lose money - who cares? The idea is to enjoy it.
Money is not an issue to me. My mother always tells me, money, it comes and it goes.
I find it hard to be labelled in this new 'super-rich' category because we all grew up with very little. The idea that 'to get rich is glorious' is really a new phenomenon. I certainly didn't grow up like that.
Only the elites despise earning money.
I never had money; I like nice things, but I don't let that run my life. At the same time, I have to let something drive me... so now I let the money drive me.
Money is not everything. We don't need billions and trillions of dollars.
Many men are contemptuous of riches; few can give them away.
When a man says money can do anything, that settles it: he hasn't got any.
I like the idea of having money.
I'm not interested in building wealth, which is kind of naive and probably frowned on, living in America. It's something that people don't necessarily understand, but if I die poor, I die poor.
Money to me is not a factor in my life.
I don't mind their having a lot of money, and I don't care how they employ it, but I do think that they damn well ought to admit they enjoy it.
New Zealand is not used to wealth. In America wealth is kind of a thing of pride. Here it's the opposite. The more you've got, the bigger the target you are.
I don't want money badly enough to work for it.
By the time I was 25 or 26, I would have earned a million, but if you looked in the bank account, it's not there because I've spent it. That's what it's there for. I don't want to be the richest bloke in the graveyard. Look at Elvis.
