Don't be seduced into thinking that that which does not make a profit is without value.

Legitimate profit is good. What's bad is profiteering.

I don't do something necessarily to make a big profit or because it's a logical business decision.

Profitability is a shallow goal if it doesn't have a real purpose, and the purpose has to be share the profits with others.

I believe that the human motive to share is very powerful. The human motive to profit is also very powerful, and I think that the profit motive and the sharing motive are not exclusive.

If someone is going to profit from your work, they need to earn it.

Profit is not the legitimate purpose of business. The legitimate purpose of business is to provide a product or service that people need and do it so well that it's profitable.

I've made a profit from everything I have done in life.

I make no apology for wanting to make a profit - the more I make, the bigger percentage will go to charity. So most of the work I do now is motivated by that.
