Millionaires

Recipe for a multi-millionaire:

Take a boy with bare feet as a starter Add thrift and sobriety, mixed- Flavor with quarts of religion, And see that the tariff is fixed. -Life.

MILLIONAIRE (to a beggar) - "Be off with you this minute!" BEGGAR "Look 'ere, mister; the only difference between you and me is that you are makin' your second million, while I am still workin' at my first." "Now that you have made $50,000,000, I suppose you are going to keep right on for the purpose of trying to get a hundred millions?" "No, sir. You do me an injustice. I'm going to put in the rest of my time trying to get my conscience into a satisfactory condition." "When I was a young man," said Mr. Cumrox, "I thought nothing of working twelve or fourteen hours a day." "Father," replied the young man with sporty clothes, "I wish you wouldn't mention it. Those non-union sentiments are liable to make you unpopular."

No good man ever became suddenly rich. Syrus.

And all to leave what with his toil he won, To that unfeather'd two-legged thing, a son.
