The ultimate value of life depends upon awareness and the power of contemplation rather than upon mere survival.
Aristotle

Value is what you get.

There is no value in life except what you choose to place upon it and no happiness in any place except what you bring to it yourself.
Henry David Thoreau

Today people who hold cash equivalents feel comfortable. They shouldn't. They have opted for a terrible long-term asset, one that pays virtually nothing and is certain to depreciate in value.
Warren Buffett

Too often the great decisions are originated and given form in bodies made up wholly of men, or so completely dominated by them that whatever of special value women have to offer is shunted aside without expression.
Eleanor Roosevelt

If money help a man to do good to others, it is of some value; but if not, it is simply a mass of evil, and the sooner it is got rid of, the better.
Swami Vivekananda

A certain degree of neurosis is of inestimable value as a drive, especially to a psychologist.
Sigmund Freud

It is of practical value to learn to like yourself. Since you must spend so much time with yourself you might as well get some satisfaction out of the relationship.
Norman Vincent Peale

Capital is money, capital is commodities. By virtue of it being value, it has acquired the occult ability to add value to itself. It brings forth living offspring, or, at the least, lays golden eggs.
Karl Marx

The product of mental labor - science - always stands far below its value, because the labor-time necessary to reproduce it has no relation at all to the labor-time required for its original production.
Karl Marx

Nothing can have value without being an object of utility.
Karl Marx

The value of an idea lies in the using of it.
Thomas A. Edison

I have often wondered how it is that every man loves himself more than all the rest of men, but yet sets less value on his own opinions of himself than on the opinions of others.
Marcus Aurelius

One might think that the money value of an invention constitutes its reward to the man who loves his work. But... I continue to find my greatest pleasure, and so my reward, in the work that precedes what the world calls success.
Thomas A. Edison

To my mind the old masters are not art; their value is in their scarcity.
Thomas A. Edison

Every positive value has its price in negative terms... the genius of Einstein leads to Hiroshima.
Pablo Picasso

Nothing is to be rated higher than the value of the day.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Time is more value than money. You can get more money, but you cannot get more time.
Jim Rohn

The major value in life is not what you get. The major value in life is what you become.
Jim Rohn

You don't get paid for the hour. You get paid for the value you bring to the hour.
Jim Rohn
