Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs.

Money and success don’t change people; they merely amplify what is already there.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Success in business requires training and discipline and hard work. But if you’re not frightened by these things, the opportunities are just as great today as they ever were.

Lend your friend $20, if he doesn’t pay you back then he’s not your friend. Money well spent

Cannibals prefer those who have no spines.

Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve.
