Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Money can help you to get medicines but not health. Money can help you to get soft pillows, but not sound sleep. Money can help you to get material comforts, but not eternal bliss. Money can help you to get ornaments, but not beauty. Money will help you to get an electric earphone, but not natural hearing. Attain the supreme wealth, wisdom, and you will have everything."
Benjamin Franklin
"Nine-tenths of wisdom is being wise in time."
Theodore Roosevelt
