A Quote by Sathya Sai Baba

Your friends today attach themselves not to you but to your purse or to some advantage they can gain through your father's kindness. When your purse is empty or when your father is no longer in power, they bid you good-bye.

Take a coin from your purse and invest it in your mind. It will come pouring out of your mind and overflow your purse.

Benjamin Franklin

Why do you mention my father?' screamed he; 'Why do you mingle a recollection of him with the affairs of today?' Because I am he who saved your father's life when he wished to destroy himself, as you do today-because I am the man who sent the purse to your young sister, and the Paraon to Old Morrel-because I am the Edmond Dantes who nursed you, a child, on my knees.

Alexandre Dumas

It's true; once you are a father, there's no turning back. Your heart strings as well as your purse strings are never again the same.

H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

What you have to understand, is your father was your model for God. If you're male and you're Christian and living in America, your father is your model for God. And if you never know your father, if your father bails out or dies or is never at home, what do you believe about God? What you end up doing is you spend your life searching for a father and God. What you have to consider is the possibility that God doesn't like you. Could be, God hates us. This is not the worst thing that can happen.

Chuck Palahniuk

The Holy Spirit acts mystically through the spiritual father, and then when you go out from your spiritual father, the soul feels her renewal. But if you leave your spiritual father in a state of confusion, this means that you did not confess purely and did not forgive your brother all of his sins from your heart.

Silouan the Athonite

A Chihuahua. They're good. If you lose one, just empty out your purse.

Jean Carroll

Let your heart feel for the afflictions and distress of everyone, and let your hand give in proportion to your purse.

George Washington

Trust your father. He is not perfect, but he loves you and would never do anything he didn't think was in your best interest. So talk to him. Share your thoughts and feelings, your dreams and your fears. The more he knows about your life, the better chance he has to understand your concerns and to give you good counsel.

M. Russell Ballard

Your best investment is to pour your purse into your head, and no one can take it away from you.

Benjamin Franklin

Father in Heaven knew that you would face challenges and be required to make some decisions that would be beyond your own ability to decide correctly…That assistance will come to you through the Holy Ghost as spiritual guidance. It is a power, beyond your own capability, that a loving Heavenly Father wants you to use consistently for your peace and happiness.

Richard G. Scott

For the best return on your money, pour your purse into your head.

Benjamin Franklin

And were your back as broad as heaven, and your purse full of gold, and did your compassion reach from here to hell itself, there is nothing you can do.

Alan Paton

You wanted to kill your father in order to be your father yourself. Now you are your father, but a dead father.

Sigmund Freud

Of all your associations, it is your relationship with God, your Heavenly Father, who is the source of your moral power.

D. Todd Christofferson

You can sing all you want about how you love Jesus, you can have crocodile tears in your eyes, but the consecration that doesn't reach your purse has not reached your heart.
