I intend to be the greatest golfer in the world, the finest film producer in Hollywood, the greatest pilot in the world, and the richest man in the world.

Howard Hughes

He is the richest man in the esteem of the world who has gotten the most. He is the richest man in the esteem of Heaven who has given the most.

F.B. Meyer

You know the FA's the richest football association in the world? Well, I shouldn't say that. They're not the richest at all. What they do is they have the biggest turnover in the world with £325m.

Sam Allardyce

When I was a boxer, I wanted to be champion of the world, not the richest man in the world.

George Foreman

The modern world is reversing the old virtues of authority. They aimed deliberately to make men unworldly. They did not aim to found society on a full use of the earth's resources; they did not aim to use the whole nature of man; they did not intend him to think out the full expression of his desires. Democracy is a turning point upon those ideals in a pursuit, at first unconsciously, of the richest life that men can devise for themselves.

Walter Lippmann

Part of the reason people abroad resent the United States is something Americans can do very little about: envy. The richest, most powerful country in the world attracts the jealousy of others in much the same way that the richest, most powerful man in a small town attracts the jealousy of others.

Mohsin Hamid

I own no property and yet I feel that I am perhaps the richest man in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi

The richest man in the world is not the one who still has the first dollar he ever earned. It's the man who still has his best friend.

Martha Mason

Mind you, I have had in my sojourn on earth as good a time of it as any man, so I can speak with some knowledge. A writer in the Manchester Guardian who is unknown to me lately described me as "the richest man in the world." That sounds a pretty big order, but when I come to think it out I believe he is not far wrong. A rich man is not necessarily a man with a whole pot of money but a man who is really happy. And I am that.

Robert Baden-Powell

In an ugly and unhappy world the richest man can purchase nothing but ugliness and unhappiness.

George Bernard Shaw

I'm on top of the world, man. And I intend to stay there.

Conor McGregor

He is the richest man who enriches his country most; in whom the people feel richest and proudest; who gives himself with his money; who opens the doors of opportunity widest to those about him; who is ears to the deaf; eyes to the blind, and feet to the lame. Such a man makes every acre of land in his community worth more, and makes richer every man who lives near him.

Orison Swett Marden

I regret being the richest man in the world because that position attracts undeserved publicity.

Bill Gates

China is now expected to surpass Japan as the 2nd richest country in the world. They could become the richest, but that's only if we pay them the money we owe them, and that's not going to happen.
