I will stand up for what I believe and for what I have always believed: Every person has a right to be rich in this country and I want to help them get there.

The stock market is filled with individuals who know the price of everything, but the value of nothing.

Markets are designed to allow individuals to look after their private needs and to pursue profit. It's really a great invention and I wouldn't under-estimate the value of that, but they're not designed to take care of social needs

To understand what is coming at you, you need to understand what happened before you.

Anyone who has become rich twice is dumb. Why would you risk what you need and have for what you don’t need? If you are already rich, there is no upside to taking on a lot more risk, but there is disgrace on the downside.

I find that the more generous I am, the more I get in return, and the more I get in return, the more generous I am.
