America’s work ethic is non-stop; it’s not even enshrined in law that workers have to get their two weeks holiday money. But Americans work harder than everyone else I can think of. – Dylan Moran
There’s more to the sport than just fighting, and you either understand that, or you don’t. And if you don’t, then I promise you the guys that are worth money don’t want to fight you, because you don’t get it. – Dominick Cruz
You know the illusion of the cheap money is over and now Britain has to go out there and graft and earn its way and create wealth and prosperity in a very competitive world. – George Osborne
I don’t really try to get involved politically by giving money to politicians or by saying I’m a Democrat or Republican. Right now, I just view myself as an American. – David Rubenstein
If you build your own chair, there is a lot of things that happen. You could probably buy a nice chair for less money than a chair that you built yourself, and it might even look better, but if you build that chair, you’re going to take care of it and maintain it because it’s your chair. If it breaks, you know how to fix it. – Mark Frauenfelder
The freedom that money gives you makes you… well, I wouldn’t say happy, but I’d say it gives you diversity. – Paloma Faith
I like the strategy of finding great entrepreneurs early, giving them some money, helping them a little – perhaps not as much as we would a regular core investment. – Dan Levitan
I support the rights of non-humans wholeheartedly with my voice, my money, my presence, my writing and any other way I can. – Cecilia Dart-Thornton
Bureaucracies tend to grow and to brag about their growth based on how many individuals they have and how much money they spend. – Darrell Issa
I can remember when I first went into the Himalayan area way back in 1951. Money, for instance, was not important at all to the local people. But now, finance has become just as important to them as it is to us, and this is a change maybe not for the better. – Edmund Hillary
For all Trump’s criticisms of government, his family wealth came from feeding at the government trough. His father, Fred Trump, leveraged government housing programs into a construction business; the empire was founded on public money. – Nicholas Kristof
London changes because of money. It’s real estate. If they can build some offices or expensive apartments they will, it’s money that changes everything in a city. – David Bailey
If there is anything I would do differently in my life, it is that I would study business more. I’m trying to teach my daughter Chloe at an early age about investing and money so she’s not afraid of it. – Donna Mills
One day, when this modeling thing is over for me and I don’t enjoy it anymore, I’m just gonna be gone! You know? I’m not here for fame or money. I’m not going to stick around and pretend everything is cool if I’m over it. When it’s done, I’m out. Ciao. – Mariacarla Boscono
The first time I made any money, I was 27. I went to Bergdorf’s looking like a proper guttersnipe and bought a pair of Louboutins. I’d wear them and an old ink-stained kimono and make my drawings and feel indomitable. – Molly Crabapple
When you’re working and making money, that’s all good, but there has to be something that provides a substance, I think. – Mekhi Phifer
It is true that rich people can spend more money than middle class people, but there’s this upper limit on what we can spend. I drive a very nice car, but it’s only one car. I don’t own a thousand, even though I earn a thousand times the median wage. I have a few jackets, not a few thousand. – Nick Hanauer
If my company spends money, it should be disclosed to the shareholders and how it was spent. With my personal money, I can do anything I want. But company money should be disclosed. – N. R. Narayana Murthy
It’s funny because I grew up with the T.V. on 24 hours a day. And the more money I made, the more T.V.s we had. – Gaby Hoffmann
And basically, the sense of the ‘Pledge to America’ is this: Republicans understand when we were in charge, we got fired in ’06. We spent too much money. We defied the trust that the people had put in us. And we know that there is a better way. – Eric Cantor
Fannie and Freddie made two-thirds of all subprime mortgages. That is not a free market institution. That entity, along with the Fed printing too much money back in ’03 and ’04, caused the housing collapse. So we need to take free markets seriously. That means we have to put an end to all these tax credits and tax deductions and loopholes. – Dave Brat
I used to get my money at the end of the week, buy my mum something, or buy a record, and that was it. – Elton John
Leading the boom of 1838 were state governments, who, finding themselves with the unexpected windfall of a distributed surplus from the federal government, proceeded to spend the money wildly and borrow even more extravagantly on public works and other uneconomic forms of ‘investment.’ – Murray Rothbard
The Pentagon talks about our power to ‘overkill’ Russia ten times, twenty times, perhaps forty-eight times. For my tax money, it is sufficient to overkill them once. – Gore Vidal
I was a lower middle-class kid. My family had no money. There was no room in our small house where there were already four kids, including myself, living. – Patti Smith
Because I didn’t have much money, I bought a small shop that fit my budget. The previous six owners had closed their business in three years. The store had no people traffic and, because of that, I was able to focus on figuring out how to provide a better service to each and every one of the customers that did come through. – Do Won Chang
