我知道，一個人若是每日醒來就把時間花費在賺錢上面，為了賺錢而賺錢，沒有什麼比這件事更令人鄙視與悲哀了。
I know of nothing more despicable and pathetic than a man who devotesall the hours of the waking day to the making of money for money’s sake.

賺錢之道就是趁街上血流成河時買進。
The way to make money is to buy when blood is running in the streets.

你會發現（金錢）即使不是最好的朋友，也是你朋友當中最好的。
You will find [money] the best of friends ── if not the bestfriend──you have.

一個人的財富必須取決於他的慾望與支出、收入的關係。如果他只要十美元就覺得很富有，並擁有想要的一切，那麼他真的很富有。
A man’s wealth must be determined by the relation of his desires andexpenditures to his income. If he feels rich on ten dollars, and haseverything else he desires, he really is rich.

如果你的唯一目標是致富的話，那你永遠不會實現。
If your only goal is to become rich, you will never achieve it.

你知道什麼事情會讓老祖宗痛苦不堪嗎？就是當他們知道你們之中有任何人變得揮霍無度、奢侈浪費、對於他的錢財毫不在乎的時候。
Do you know what would hurt grandfather a great deal? to know thatany of you boys should become wasteful, extravagant, careless with hismoney.

讓金錢成為我的奴隸，而非讓自己淪為金錢的奴隸，這種想法越來越深入我的內心。
The impression was gaining ground with me that it was a good thing tolet the money be my slave and not make myself a slave to money.

我沒有發大財的野心。單純賺錢從來不是我的目標。我看到我們國家美好的未來，我想加入讓國家變得美好的宏圖大業之中。我有建設的雄心壯志。
I had no ambition to make a fortune. Mere money making has neverbeen my goal. I saw a marvelous future for our country, and I wanted toparticipate in the work of making our country great. I had an ambitionto build.

我認為，如果知道怎麼正確運用的話，錢是個好東西。但我認為錢對許多人來說非常危險，因為他們不知道怎麼正確運用。
I had no ambition to make a fortune. Mere money making has neverbeen my goal. I saw a marvelous future for our country, and I wanted toparticipate in the work of making our country great. I had an ambitionto build.

我認識一些人，尤其是年輕人，他們的錢包連一點錢都存不了。我學會怎麼存錢，而且正如我們所說的，「我不會一有錢就想花掉」。我學到的事情就是把錢存好，好好保管。
I know of some people, especially young men, who find it very difficultto keep a little money in their pocketbooks. I learned to keep the money,and, as we had a way of saying, “it didn’t burn a hole in my pocket.” Iwas taught that it was the thing to do to keep the money and to take careof it.
