I realised how rich I had become and I asked myself, 'Do I really want to be the richest person in the cemetery?'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we've done something wonderful, that's what matters to me.
There's no reason to be the richest man in the cemetery. You can't do any business from there.
Although I grew up in very modest and challenging circumstances, I consider my life to be immeasurably rich.

By the time I was 25 or 26, I would have earned a million, but if you looked in the bank account, it's not there because I've spent it. That's what it's there for. I don't want to be the richest bloke in the graveyard. Look at Elvis.
It is in spending oneself that one becomes rich.
I had no idea that being your authentic self could make me as rich as I've become. If I had, I'd have done it a lot earlier.
People say 'I want to be rich'. The question is, 'Are you willing to do what it takes?'
Someday I want to be rich. Some people get so rich they lose all respect for humanity. That's how rich I want to be.
I do not ask for the riches that perish or the fame that fades away like a morning mist.
