The	 inherent	 vice	 of	 capitalism	 is	 the	 uneven	 division	 of	 blessings,	 while	 the
inherent	virtue	of	socialism	is	the	equal	division	of	misery.

         —Winston	Churchill,	former	prime	minister	of	the	United	Kingdom	

I	built	them	what	they	wanted	and	I	made	a	profit	off	of	it.	Now	they	call	me	a
god….	What	fools	these	mortals	be.

         —Benjamin	 R.	 Smith,	 author	 (from	 his	 book	 Atlas:	 A	 Novel,	 2012)	 I	 had	 no	 ambition	 to	 make	 a
            fortune.	Mere	money	making	has	never	been	my	goal.	I	saw	a	marvelous	future	for	our	country,
            and	I	wanted	to	participate	in	the	work	of	making	our	country	great.	I	had	an	ambition	to	build.

         —John	D.	Rockefeller,	industrialist,	cofounder	of	Standard	Oil	Co.,	and	philanthropist	

I	also	learned	that	I	love	making	money.	Anyone	who	is	not	afraid	of	work	will
be	happy	with	the	money	they	make.

         —Gene	Simmons,	musician

Wealth	is	good	when	it	brings	joy	to	others.

         —Og	Mandino,	author

I	 have	 always	 said	 that	 human	 beings	 are	 multidimensional	 beings.	 Their
happiness	 comes	 from	 many	 sources,	 not,	 as	 our	 current	 economic	 framework
assumes,	just	from	making	money.

         —Muhammad	Yunus,	Nobel	Peace	Prize	winner
