Quote

We are all born into the world with nothing. Everything we acquire after that is profit.

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

Henceforth I ask not good fortune. I myself am good fortune.

The truth is nobody can own anything. That was an unheard-of concept among indigenous people. We invented that.

I come from a large family, but I was not raised with a fortune. Something more was left me, and that was family values.

Fortune cannot aid those who do nothing.

My features I take from my father, but my spirit, my industry and perseverance I get from my Indian mother.

I take pride in the creation of my wealth, in its existence and in the uses to which it has been and is being put.

Your fortune is not something to find but to unfold.
