Worry is interest paid on trouble before it comes due.

When you borrow money, you should always think how you're going to pay it back.

Borrowing is not much better than begging; just as lending with interest is not much better than stealing.

Just because someone will lend money to you doesn't mean you should borrow it.

Debt is a mistake between lender and borrower, and both should suffer.

Worrying is like paying on a debt that may never come due.

The real danger with debt is what happens if lots of people decide, or are forced, to pay it off at the same time.

It is a fraud to borrow what we are unable to pay.

Every time the U.S. government makes a low-cost loan to someone, it's investing in them.

Any informed borrower is simply less vulnerable to fraud and abuse.
