I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.

Knowledge earns you power, character earns you respect.
Bruce Lee

If you consider that a typical Central American consumer earns only a small fraction of an average American worker's wages, it becomes clear that CAFTA's true goal is not to the increase U.S. exports.

There are two kinds of businesses: The first earns 12%, and you can take it out at the end of the year. The second earns 12%, but all the excess cash must be reinvested - there's never any cash. It reminds me of the guy who looks at all of his equipment and says, 'There's all of my profit.' We hate that kind of business.

Just because one of you earns the paycheck doesn't mean that person should lord over how the money is handled.
Suze Orman

We exist to build the business of our clients. The recommendations we make to them should be the recommendations we would make if we owned their companies, without regard to our own short-term interest. This earns their respect, which is the greatest asset we can have.

I urge you to live within your means. One cannot spend more than one earns and remain solvent. I promise you that you will then be happier than you would be if you were constantly worrying about how to make the next payment on nonessential debt.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
Character is money and according as the man earns or spends the money, money in turn becomes character. As money is the most evident power in the world's uses, so the use that he makes of money is often all that the world knows about a man.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton

It's not a burning ambition for me to make sure that David Beckham earns less money.
Tony Blair

I know everybody's income and what everybody earns, And I carefully compare it with the income-tax returns
W. S. Gilbert

A wealthy man is one who earns $100 a year more than his wife's sister's husband.
H. L. Mencken
Image
The ideal business is one that earns very high returns on capital and that keeps using lots of capital at those high returns. That becomes a compounding machine.
Warren Buffett
Image
If women with the same skills as men were getting only 78 cents for every dollar a man earns, men would have long-since priced themselves out of the market.
Ilana Mercer
Image
Believe me, the man who earns his bread by the sweat of his brow, eats oftener a sweeter morsel, however coarse, than he who procures it by the labor of his brains.
Washington Irving
Image
The evidence shows that investing in women and girls delivers major benefits for society. An educated woman has healthier children. She is more likely to send them to school. She earns more and invests what she earns in her family.
Jimmy Carter

He only earns his freedom and his life Who takes them every day by storm.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Any guy who can maintain a positive attitude without much playing time certainly earns my respect.
Magic Johnson
Image
There's nothing inherently or patently wrong with anybody who does well, works hard, earns a living, betters themselves. I'm not against any of these things. It's about how you make that money, and then what you do with it.
Michael Moore

Disrespect earns the displeasure of the creator and the creation.
Abdul-Qadir Gilani

The spirit in which one earns his daily bread means as much to his soul as the bread itself may mean to his body.
Myrtle Reed
Image
When a woman earns a dollar, the payback is higher. She'll invest in her children, in their education, health care, and basic needs. The impact of a woman's role in the economy benefits society at large.
Andrea Jung

Everyone wants to be young, beautiful and rich. I don't say that scornfully: there are worse things to want to be. But that's why, for example, people don't begrudge Kate Moss how much she earns for a day's work but will fulminate over the take-home pay of some fat, old Water Board exec.
Nigella Lawson
Image
It is one's own personal, selfish happiness that one seeks, earns, and derives from love.
