"Whatever you think, be sure it is what you think; whatever you want, be sure that is what you want; whatever you feel, be sure it is what you feel." --T. S. Eliot
"If you can count your money, you don't have a billion dollars." --J. Paul Getty
"If you ever start feeling like you have the goofiest, craziest, most dysfunctional family in the world, all you have to do is go to a state fair. Because five minutes at the fair, you'll be going, 'you know, we're alright. We are dang near royalty'." --Jeff Foxworthy
