Famous quotes containing the words health and/or spending:
“I am astonished at the singular pertinacity and endurance of our lives. The miracle is, that what is is, when it is so difficult, if not impossible, for anything else to be; that we walk on in our particular paths so far, before we fall on death and fate, merely because we must walk in some path; that every man can get a living, and so few can do anything more. So much only can I accomplish ere health and strength are gone, and yet this suffices.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Keeping accounts, Sir, is of no use when a man is spending his own money, and has nobody to whom he is to account. You wont eat less beef today, because you have written down what it cost yesterday.”
—Samuel Johnson (17091784)
