Quotes & Sayings About Money Making You Happy

PR *is* a shrewd, rough game. It's learning to psychologically manipulate, play on people's greed and vanity. Convincing a target audience to buy products and services they neither need nor want.

How foolish to forego the opportunity of making everybody rich, and consequently happy, that the State's right to create money gives it!

How wicked of the economists to assert that it is not within the power of the State to create wealth by means of the printing press!- You statesmen want to build railways, and complain of the low state of the exchequer?

Then do it! — Oprah Winfrey

My point is this - if you want to be happy in showbiz (or any creative field), listen to that voice inside you. Even if it says "Fuck it" sometimes. Work with your friends.

Eventually you'll end up somewhere that you never want to leave."
