Famous quotes containing the words health and/or spending:
“We are conscious of an animal in us, which awakens in proportion as our higher nature slumbers. It is reptile and sensual, and perhaps cannot be wholly expelled; like the worms which, even in life and health, occupy our bodies. Possibly we may withdraw from it, but never change its nature. I fear that it may enjoy a certain health of its own; that we may be well, yet not pure.”
—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)
