Own Nothing, Control Everything.

When Prohibition Was Introduced, I Hoped That It Would Be Widely Supported By Public Opinion And The Day Would Soon Come When The Evil Effects Of Alcohol Would Be Recognised. I Have Slowly And Reluctantly Come To Believe That This Has Not Been The Result. Instead, Drinking Has Generally Increased; The Speakeasy Has Replaced The Saloon; A Vast Army Of Lawbreakers Has Appeared; Many Of Our Best Citizens Have Openly Ignored Prohibition; Respect For The Law Has Been Greatly Lessened; And Crime Has Increased To A Level Never Seen Before.

God Gave Me My Money. I Believe The Power To Make Money Is A Gift From God . To Be Developed And Used To The Best Of Our Ability For The Good Of Mankind. Having Been Endowed With The Gift I Possess, I Believe It Is My Duty To Make Money And Still More Money And To Use The Money I Make For The Good Of My Fellow Man According To The Dictates Of My Conscience.

I Know Of Nothing More Despicable And Pathetic Than A Man Who Devotes All The Hours Of The Waking Day To The Making Of Money For Money's Sake.

I Have Ways Of Making Money That You Know Nothing Of.

There Is No Feeling In This World To Be Compared With Self-reliance--do Not Sacrifice That To Anything Else.
