There was some conflict there over Saturday nights because we were all really broke in those days- all the money you had in the world was in your pockets. Nowadays when you're say you're broke, it's not the same thing.

Arto Lindsay

The biggest message, we hope, is that money is not the most important thing in life. You have to have it to survive and live but it's not the most important thing in life. It's the legacy you leave and the people that you wrap around you and the love that you have wrapped around you (that) should be the most important thing.

Drew Waters

It's important for me to win the fight, but it's not the most important thing. The most important thing is to show people who spend their hard-earned money that they can be entertained by the way I fight.

Manny Pacquiao

The universal regard for money is the one hopeful fact in our civilization. Money is the most important thing in the world. It represents health, strength, honor, generosity and beauty . . . . Not the least of its virtues is that it destroys basic people as certainly as it fortifies and dignifies noble people.

George Bernard Shaw

Those who have money think that the most important thing in the world is love. The poor know it is money.

Gerald Brenan

The only thing you should have to do is find work you love to do. And I can't imagine living without having loved a person. A man, in my case. It could be a woman, but whatever. I think, what I always tell kids when they get out of class and ask, 'What should I do now?' I always say, 'Keep a low overhead. You're not going to make a lot of money.' And the next thing I say: 'Don't live with a person who doesn't respect your work.' That's the most important thing—that's more important than the money thing. I think those two things are very valuable pieces of information.

Grace Paley

Money is the most important thing in the world, you know. Money can buy you happiness, and I don't care what anyone else thinks.

Marie Lu

People say the most important thing is building a world-class team.

Ben Horowitz

I come from a family who didn't have much money but raised me to believe that money wasn't the most important thing in the world. We had enough; we were happy.

Edward Enninful

Money is a most important thing in the world.

George Bernard Shaw

I stopped listening to what people say. For me, the most important thing is what my family says, what my coaches say, what my friends say. What people that I never see in my life and what they say? Who cares?

Jan Blachowicz

If for you the most important thing is to make a lot of money, then you don't want to take a certain type of risk. If, on another hand, the most important thing to you is to make people around you have a more fulfilled life, then there is a different set of things that are important to you. Unless you really know that about yourself, you will never be able to appropriately assess risk.

Benjamin Carson

The most important thing is to have a point of view and have something to say. That is important if you are filmmaker or artist. That means you have to experience the world.
