Consume Quotations

Throughout life people will make you mad, disrespect you and treat you bad. Let God deal with the things they do, cause hate in your heart will consume you too.
Will Smith

We have no more right to consume happiness without producing it than to consume wealth without producing it.
George Bernard Shaw

No one has a right to consume happiness without producing it.
Helen Keller

A consumer doesn't take anything away: he doesn't actually consume anything. Giving the same thing to a thousand consumers is not really any more expensive than giving it to just one.
Linus Torvalds

Herbert Simon
